DMM in PXI Slots 1 through 3 Configuration

To install your DMM in PXI slots 1 through 3, follow these steps:

Install your DMM in any one of the PXI slots 1 through 3.

In the SCXI subsystem, install the 2-slot HVAB-backplane adapter
behind SCXI slots 3 and 4.

Install additional 1-slot HVAB-backplane adapters behind SCXI
slots 1 and 2 if needed.

Install the 8-position HVAB plugs to connect the HVAB-backplane
adapters as needed.

Connect the HV8-BAN4 cable from the DMM to the HVAB connector
behind SCXI slot 4.

Connect the SH9MD-9MD cable from the DMM to the AUX IN
connector.

You can install any additional SCXI-1129 modules in any slot that has
an HVAB-backplane adapter behind it.

DMM in PXI Slot 4 Configuration

To install your DMM in slot 4 follow these steps:

Install your DMM in slot 4.

Install the 2-slot HVAB-backplane adapter behind slots 3 and 4.

Install additional 1-slot HVAB-backplane adapters behind slots 1
and 2 if needed.

Install the 8-position HVAB plugs to connect the HVAB-backplane
adapters as needed.

Connect the HV8-BAN4 cable from the DMM to the HVAB connector
behind slot 4.

You can install any additional SCXI-1129 modules in any slot that has
an HVAB-backplane adapter behind it.

Note

The SH9MD-9MD is not required for this configuration.
