M5201A PXIe Downconverter Modules Startup Guide

Setting up the M5201A module
The PC should be shut down before the chassis is powered down. This will
prevent the chassis, as it’s being powered down, from disrupting operation
of the PC.
In brief, the PC should be off whenever the chassis is powered up or down.
Because chassis modules are not hot-swappable, chassis modules should
only be added or removed when the chassis is powered down. The power
sequence described above doesn’t apply to an embedded controller
installed in the chassis because the embedded controller and chassis are
powered together.
2.2.8: Installing required software
After the PC boots up and Windows desktop appears, you must install the
software required for programming the M5201A modules. See
“Setting up the M5201x software”.
CAUTION
PXIe hardware does not support “hot-swap” (changing modules while
power is applied to the chassis) capabilities. Before installing or
removing a module to/from the chassis, power down the chassis to
prevent damage to the module.
