MAX lists all modules installed in the chassis. Your default names may vary.
Note
If you do not see your module listed, press <F5> to refresh the
list of installed modules. If the module is still not listed, power off the
system, ensure the module is correctly installed, and restart.
4. Record the identifier MAX assigns to the hardware. Use this identifier when
programming the PXIe-4163.
5. Self-test the hardware by selecting the item in the configuration tree and
clicking
Self-Test
in the MAX toolbar.
The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.

Self-Calibrating the PXIe-4163
Self-calibration adjusts the PXIe-4163 for variations in the module environment.
Perform a complete self-calibration after the first time you install the PXIe-4163.
1. Install the PXIe-4163 and let it warm up for 30 minutes.
Note
Warm up begins when the PXI Express chassis has been
powered on and the operating system has completely loaded.
2. Self-calibrate the PXIe-4163 by clicking the
Self-Calibrate
button in MAX or
calling niDCPower Cal Self Calibrate or niDCPower_CalSelfCalibrate.
The PXIe-4163 modules are externally calibrated at the factory but you should
perform a self-calibration in all of the following situations:
■
After first installing the PXIe-4163 in a chassis
■
After any module that is in the same chassis as the PXIe-4163 is installed,
uninstalled, or moved
