  • Page 108 Appendix C Common Questions Can I connect a MXI-3 or MXI-4 board to a MXI-Express x1 board? No. MXI-3, MXI-4, and MXI-Express x1 boards use different cable connectors and protocols in most cases and cannot be mixed. This is because the board-to-board communication protocols differ.
  • Page 109 Universal options for copper and fiber-optic MXI-4 products are available upon request. With the copper MXI-Express PXI modules, you can control a PXI chassis from a PCI Express or ExpressCard slot in your host computer using the PCIe-8361, PCIe-8362, PCIe-8363, or ExpressCard-8360. © National Instruments Corporation | C-3...
  • Page 110 Appendix C Common Questions In addition to these differences, there is one additional PCI bridge across the Note host and target link compared to a MXI-4 link which will be visible to the operating system (OS). If you replace any MXI-4 compatible products with MXI-Express x1 products, the additional bridge will cause the OS to rediscover all devices that were part of the existing MXI system.
