Why Is the ACCESS LED Off When the Chassis Is
On?

The LEDs may not illuminate until the module has been configured in MAX. Before
proceeding, verify that the PXIe-6570 appears in MAX.

If the ACCESS LED fails to illuminate after you power on the PXI Express chassis, a problem
may exist with the PXI Express power rails, a hardware module, or the LED.

Caution

 

Apply external signals only while the PXIe-6570 is powered on.

Applying external signals while the module is powered off may cause damage.

Disconnect any signals from the PXI Express module front panels.

2.

Remove any front panel connections from the PXIe-6570.

3.

Power off the PXI Express chassis.

4.

Remove the module from the PXI Express chassis and inspect it for damage. Do not
reinstall a damaged module.

5.

Install the module in a different PXI Express chassis slot from which you removed it.

6.

Power on the PXI Express chassis.

7.

Verify that the module appears in MAX.

8.

Reset the module in MAX and perform a self-test.
