Note

If you are installing the PXI-8252 in a chassis using a PXI embedded controller, 

power on the chassis to power up the system. If you are using a PXI 

remote

 controller, such 

as MXI-3, power on the PXI chassis first, then power on the remote PC. If you do not power 
on the chassis and remote system in the correct order, the remote system will not recognize 
the PXI bus.
