The LEDs may not light until the module has been configured in MAX. Before
proceeding, verify that the module appears in MAX.
If the module appears in MAX but the ACCESS LED fails to light after you power on
the chassis, a problem may exist with the chassis power rails, the hardware module,
or the LED.
Notice
Apply external signals only while the hardware is powered on.
Applying external signals while the hardware is powered off may cause
damage.
1. Disconnect any signals from the PXI Express module front panel.
2. Power off the PXI Express chassis.
3. Remove the module from the PXI Express chassis and inspect it for damage.
Do not reinstall a damaged device.
4. Install the module in a different PXI Express chassis slot from which you
removed it.
5. Power on the PXI Express chassis.
6. Restart your computer.
7. Verify that the module appears in MAX.
What Should I Do if the PXIe-5832 Fails the Self-Test?
