MXI System Controller
control to determine whether the
PCI-MXI-2 acts as the MXIbus System Controller. The three options are

Yes

Auto
setting is active (the default setting), the PCI-MXI-2

the controller. This setting requires that the cable is attached properly

VXI/VME-MXI-2 Configuration Editor. Refer to the
section of Chapter 3,
VXI-MXI-2 Configuration and Installation
