VXI-AT2000/NI-VXI MS-DOS Getting Started
Chapter 1
Introduction
This chapter describes the VXI-AT2000 interface kit, contains a picture of the VXI-AT2000
interface kit, lists the contents of your kit, and lists optional equipment and software.
The VXI-AT2000 is an interface kit that links any IBM Personal Computer AT or compatible
computer (hereafter referred to as the PC AT) directly to the VXIbus. A PC AT equipped with a
VXI-AT2000 can function as a VXI Commander and Resource Manager. The VXI-AT2000
makes the PC AT appear as though it were plugged directly into the VXI backplane as an
embedded CPU VXI module.
Figure 1-1 shows the VXI-AT2000 interface kit.
