Hardware Installation
You can install the SCXI-1102/B/C module in any available SCXI
chassis slot. After you have made any necessary changes and have
verified and recorded the jumper setting on the form in Appendix C,
Customer Communication, you are ready to install the SCXI-1102/B/C
module. The following are general installation instructions; consult the
user manual or technical reference manual of your SCXI chassis for
specific instructions and warnings:
1.
Turn off the computer that contains the DAQ device or disconnect
it from your SCXI chassis.
2.
Turn off the SCXI chassis. Do not insert the SCXI-1102/B/C
module into a chassis that is turned on.
3.
Insert the SCXI-1102/B/C module into the module guides. Gently
guide the module into the back of the slot until the connectors make
good contact. If a cable assembly has already been installed in the
rear of the chassis, the module and cable assembly must be firmly
engaged; however, do not force the module into place.
4.
Screw the front mounting panel of the SCXI-1102/B/C module to
the top and bottom threaded strips of your SCXI chassis.
5.
If this module is to be connected to an MIO-16 DAQ device, attach
the connector at the metal end of the SCXI-1340 cable assembly to
the rear signal connector on the SCXI-1102/B/C module. Screw the
rear panel to the rear threaded strip. Attach the loose end of the
cable to the MIO-16 device.
Note:
For installation procedures with other SCXI accessories and DAQ devices,
consult your cable installation guide.

Turn on the computer or reconnect it to your chassis.
The SCXI-1102/B/C module is installed. You are now ready to install
