Use low-pressure compressed air to remove foreign particles and to dry the connector. After
cleaning, verify that the center pin has not been bent or damaged.
Store Connectors Properly
When not in use, keep the connectors covered with the dust cap included in the NI 5630
shipping kit.
Configuring the NI 5630 in MAX
Use Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure your National Instruments
hardware. MAX informs other programs about which devices reside in the system and how
they are configured. MAX is automatically installed with NI-VNA.
1.
Launch MAX.
2.
In the Configuration pane, double-click
Devices and Interfaces
to see the list of installed
devices.
Installed devices appear under the name of their associated chassis.
3.
Expand your
Chassis
tree item.
MAX lists all devices installed in the chassis. Your default device names may vary.
Note
If you do not see your device listed, press <F5> to refresh the list of
installed devices. If the device is still not listed, power off the system, ensure
the device is correctly installed, and restart.
4.
Record the device identifier MAX assigns to the hardware. Use this identifier when
programming the NI 5630.
5.
Self-test the device by selecting the device in the configuration tree and clicking
Self-
Test
in the MAX toolbar.
The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.
