9.5  PXIe Multi Chassis mode operation

Multiple chassis can be connected to operate in 

Multi Chassis Mode

To operate in Multi Chassis Mode, 

CohesionSCPI service must be version 1.02.06 or later

.

9.5.1  NI-MAX application Multi Chassis mode

NOTE

The  CohesionSCPI service does not manage the chassis numbers. These are controlled by the NI Platform Services (and through NI-MAX). 

Even if the CohesionSCPI service is in Multi Chassis mode, if a chassis is connected but has no installed modules, it will not show up when 

*OPT?

 is 

run. 

In the example shown below, there are two chassis connected via the PXIe-8384 to PXIe-8381 connection. Chassis #2 has the controller running 
CohesionSCPI service, and Chassis #3 is the ‘extended’ chassis.
