Why Is the ACCESS LED Off When the Chassis Is
On?
The LEDs may not light until the device has been configured in MAX. Before proceeding,
verify that the PXIe-5654 appears in MAX.
If the ACCESS LED fails to light after you power on the chassis, a problem may exist with the
chassis power rails, a hardware module, or the LED.
Notice
Apply external signals only while the PXIe-5654 is powered on. Applying
external signals while the device is powered off may cause damage.
1.
Disconnect any signals from the module front panels.
2.
Power off the chassis.
3.
Remove the module from the chassis and inspect it for damage. Do not reinstall a
damaged device.
4.
Reinstall the module in a different chassis slot.
5.
Power on the chassis.
6.
Verify that the device appears in MAX.
7.
Reset the device in MAX and perform a self-test.

MAX?
