Note

 

The AUX I/O connector accepts a standard, third-party HDMI

 type C

cable, but the AUX I/O port is not an HDMI interface and the specified performance
of the AUX I/O connector is not guaranteed if a third-party HDMI cable is used. Use
NI cable type SHH19-MH19-AUX for all AUX I/O connections. Do not connect the
AUX I/O port on the PXIe-5170/5171 to the HDMI port of another device. NI is not
liable for any damage resulting from such signal connections.
