2.3 Installing the ProDAQ 3020 Interface
To prevent damage to the ProDAQ module being installed, it is recommended to remove
the power from the mainframe or to switch it off before installing.
Insert the module into the mainframe using the guiding rails inside the mainframe as
shown in Figure 3. Push the module slowly into the slot until the modules backplane
connectors seat firmly in the corresponding backplane connectors. The top and bottom of
the front panel of the module should touch the mounting rails in the mainframe.

Note:
To ensure proper grounding of the module, tighten the front panel mounting
screws after installing the module in the mainframe.
To connect the ProDAQ 3020 USB 2.0 VXIbus Slot-0 Interface to your computer, use the
USB A-to-
B cable provided. The “A” series plug connects to your host PC or hub, while the
“B” series plug plugs into the “B” series receptacle on the ProDAQ 3020 front panel.
