About This Manual
This manual contains instructions for installing and configuring the
National Instruments PCI-MXI-2 kits for Linux. The VXI MXI-2 kit
includes a VXI-MXI-2 module that plugs into a VXI mainframe and links
your PCI-based computer to the VXIbus. The VME MXI-2 kit includes a
VME-MXI-2 that plugs into a VME chassis and links your PCI-based
computer to the VMEbus. Both kits include the PCI-MXI-2 or PCI-MXI-2
Universal interface board, which links your computer to the MXIbus, and
the NI-VXI bus interface software. The VXI MXI-2 and VME MXI-2 kits
are fully VXI
plug&play
compliant.
This manual uses the term
PCI-MXI-2 kit
when information applies to
either kit and the term
VXI/VME-MXI-2
when information applies to either
the VXI-MXI-2 or the VME-MXI-2. This manual also uses the term
PCI-MXI-2 when information applies to either the PCI-MXI-2 or the
PCI-MXI-2 Universal. The PCI-MXI-2 Universal has the same
functionality as the PCI-MXI-2, except it supports 3.3 V PCI systems.
