Step 6. Connect the MXIbus Cable
There are two basic types of MXIbus cables. MXIbus cables can have either a single connector on
each end, or a single connector on one cable end and a double connector on the other end. Your
VXI-AT2023 kit comes standard with a cable with single connectors on each end.
Nonpolarized Cables
The cable with a single connector on each cable end is nonpolarized, meaning that you can connect
either end to either device. Be sure to tighten the screw locks to ensure proper pin connection. See
Figure 2-12.
