SECTION 7 - MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

GENERAL CLEANING

• 

  Isolate the electrical power from the chassis and ensure that no user I/O signals are being applied.

• 

  Wipe the product & chassis surfaces with a clean dry anti-static cloth only.

SOFTWARE UPDATE

For PXI modules operating in a PXI chassis, no module software updates  are required. For the latest version 

of the driver please refer to our web site 

pickering

test

.com

 where links to our Software Download page will 

provide the latest version of the driver software for the various programming environments encountered.
For PXI modules which are supported in one of Pickering Interfaces’ Modular LXI Chassis (such as the 60-102B 

and 60-103B) no module software update is required. If the module was introduced after the LXI chassis was 

manufactured the module may not be recognized, in this case the chassis firmware may need upgrading. This 

is a simple process which is described in the manual for the Modular LXI Chassis.

RELAY LOOK-UP TABLES

The following pages provide a cross reference between the signal paths of the Relay Module and the physical 

relays on the PCB. The tables can be used in the fault finding process and should be used in conjunction with 

the corresponding PCB layout diagrams to identify the position of faulty relays.

SECTION 7 - MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

This product and its corresponding chassis do not require any periodic maintenance.
