2.

In the configuration tree, expand 

Devices and Interfaces

 to see the list of installed NI

hardware.

Note

 

If you are using the NI 5663E with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module,

expand 

Remote Systems

. Find your target IP address or name, expand it, and

then expand 

Devices and Interfaces

.

Installed modules appear under the name of their associated chassis.

3.

Expand your 

Chassis

 tree item.

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 NI 5663E.

5.

Associate the hardware modules that comprise your device.
a)

Select the NI 5601 that is identified as not configured in the configuration tree.

b)

In the Associated Devices section, select the appropriate module from each system
component drop-down listbox.

For the NI 5663E, you must associate the NI 5622 IF digitizer module and the
NI 5652 LO source module with the NI 5601 RF downconverter.

c)

Click 

Save

 in the MAX toolbar.

Note

 

Module associations may be lost when you move the modules to

different chassis slots.

6.

Self-test the device modules by selecting the modules in the configuration tree, and
clicking 

Self-Test

 in the MAX toolbar. Repeat this step for all modules in your NI 5663E

system.

The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.
