SCXI Quick Start Guide
Step 4. Install the Modules
Caution
Make sure the chassis is completely powered off. SCXI modules are not
hot-swappable. Adding or removing modules while the chassis is powered on can
result in blown chassis fuses or damage to the chassis and modules.
PXI/SCXI Combination Chassis
To install the PXI DAQ communicating device in the right-most slot of the PXI chassis,
complete the following steps:
1.
Touch any metal part of the chassis to discharge static electricity.
2.
Place the module edges into the top and bottom PXI module guides, as shown in Figure 5.
3.
Slide the module to the rear of the chassis. Ensure that the injector/ejector handle is pushed
down.
4.
When you begin to feel resistance, pull up on the injector/ejector handle to inject the
module.
5.
Secure the module to the chassis front panel mounting rail using the two screws.
