Launch LabVIEW to begin configuring your NI FlexRIO system.
Installing PXI EMC Filler Panels
To ensure specified EMC performance, PXI EMC filler panels must be properly installed in
your NI FlexRIO system. The PXI EMC filler panels (National Instruments part number

1.
Remove the captive screw covers.
2.
Install the PXI EMC filler panels by securing the captive mounting screws to the chassis,
