Use this menu to configure options that can be modified for individual PCI
devices in a PXI chassis.
•
PCI Device x Option ROM Scan—This setting selects whether PCI
device x will be scanned for an option ROM. Setting this option to
Enabled allows the BIOS to scan for a PCI option ROM on this PCI
device. Setting to Disabled prevents the BIOS from detecting option
ROMs on this device. Setting to Disabled does not completely disable
the PCI device, just the option ROM scan. The default is Enabled.
Use this menu to configure boot options for LabVIEW RT if it is installed
on the controller. If you are not using LabVIEW RT, you should leave these
settings at default.
•
Boot Configuration—This setting selects whether the controller
should boot LabVIEW RT, LabVIEW RT Safe Mode, or an installed
OS such as Windows XP. The default is Use Hardware Switch.
•
Disable Startup VI—If the controller becomes inaccessible because
of a startup VI, this switch can prevent VIs from automatically running
at startup. The default is Use Hardware Switch.
•
Reset IP Address—If the controller is deployed to a different subnet
from which it was originally configured, or if the current IP address is
invalid, use this switch to reset the IP address and other TCP/IP
settings to their factory defaults during LabVIEW RT startup. The
default is Use Hardware Switch.
•
Video Output—This setting enables normal video display output when
set to Auto. Set to Disable to disable video and reduce jitter with
LabVIEW RT. Note that the video display is disabled only when the boot
switch is also set to On to boot LabVIEW RT. The default setting is Auto.
