NI Switches Getting Started Guide
Procedure 2: Cable the Controller to the SCXI Switch
If you are using an SCXI-1000/1001 or PXI-1010 chassis, complete the
following steps:
1.
Power off and unplug the SCXI chassis. Follow proper ESD
precautions to ensure you are grounded before installing the hardware.
2.
Set the chassis address switches to OFF. In Figure 5, all switches are
shown in the OFF position.
Earlier chassis use jumpers inside the chassis front panel instead of
chassis address switches. Earlier chassis also differ in fuses and AC
power selection. Refer to the chassis documentation for more
information.
3.
Confirm the correct power settings of the chassis (100, 120, 220,
or 240 VAC) shown in Figure 5.
4.
Connect the chassis power cord.
Figure 5.
Chassis Preparation
After you have prepared your chassis, complete the appropriate instructions
in this section for your controller. Refer to Table 1 to determine if your
controller supports and connects to your SCXI switch module.
