NI 660x User Manual
The specification permits vendors to develop sub-buses that coexist with
the basic PCI interface on the bus. Compatible operation is not guaranteed
between devices with different sub-buses nor between devices with
sub-buses and PXI. The standard implementation for does not include
these sub-buses. The PXI TIO Series device works in any standard chassis
adhering to the PICMG 2.0 R3.0 core specification.
PXI-specific features are implemented on the J2 connector of the bus. The
PXI device is compatible with any chassis with a sub-bus that does not
drive the lines used by that device. Even if the sub-bus is capable of driving
these lines, the PXI device is still compatible as long as those pins on the
sub-bus are disabled by default and never enabled.
Before installing your DAQ device, you must install the software you plan
