If you are migrating from any of the PCIe Gen3 PXH84x adapter cards to the MXH94x or MXH95x cards, you need to uninstall the PX 
software and install the MX software. 
 

TIP:

 Dolphin provides software and documentation for several product families; 

please remember to select the MX product family 

before downloading

. The MXH94x and MXH95x requires Dolphin software version DIS 5.18.0 or higher to operate.  

The software download requires a password to log in. 

The password will automatically be emailed to you if you follow the instructions 

found on the getting started document bundled with the adapter card. 

If you fail to provide the correct serial number found on the 

getting started document, your request will be managed manually.  

Step 7 

 Verify Installation & LEDs 

The adapter card comes with 4 bi-color LEDs which show the corresponding cable port status according to Table 1: LED  below. 
 
The LEDs are visible through cut-outs in the PCIe bracket on each side of the cable connector block.
