Unused slots in the PXI/LXI chassis are populated with blanking plates to prevent access to user I/O signals that may be present. Blanking panels are available to order from Pickering in a variety of slot widths. If the product is not used in this manner for example by using an extender card then additional care must be taken to avoid contact with exposed signals.

All modules are fully CE compliant and meet applicable EU Systems such as LabVIEW RT. For other RTOS support directives: Low-voltage safety EN61010-1:2001, contact Pickering. These drivers may be used with a variety of EMC Immunity EN61000-6-1:2001, Emissions EN55011:1998. programming environments and applications including: ...
Modular products require installation in a suitable PXI/LXI chassis. The module is designed for indoor use only. PREOPERATION CHECKS (UNPACKING) 1. Check the module for transport damage and report any damage immediately to Pickering Interfaces. Do not attempt to install the product if any damage is evident.
For a system comprising more than one chassis, turn ON the last chassis in the system followed by the penultimate, etc, and finally turn ON the external controller or chassis containing the system controller. 9. For Pickering Interfaces modular LXI installation there is no requirement to use any particular power up sequence.
Figure 3.2 - General Soft Front Panel Icon A selector panel will appear, listing all installed Pickering PCI, PXI or LXI switch cards and resistor cards. Click on the card you wish to control, and a graphical control panel is presented allowing operation of the card.
IVI Driver for Windows - pi40iv The pi40iv IVI (Interchangeable Virtual Instrument) driver supports all Pickering Interfaces PXI switch cards that are consistent with the Iviswtch class model - as are the great majority of cards in the System 40/45/50 ranges. It integrates well with LabWindows/CVI and LabVIEW, and is fully compatible with Switch Executive.

Pickering LXI products include an SSH interface which allows remote command line access to control cards, or, using a suitable package, programmatic control. The user is advised to visit the Pickering web site for further details of all the above drivers, where documentation, example programs, and further help with driver choice are available.
MODULE ARCHITECTURE 40-792 The 40-792 utilises an array of thirty four 2 Form C changeover relays. In the default state the daisy chain is routed through all tributaries and the multiplexers are inactive. Energising a particular relay creates a signal path between its C and A terminals the effects of which vary depending on the relays function.
SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE pickering PROGRAMMING THE MODULE 40-792 Here are some simple examples of using the drivers with the 40-792 module. Using PILPXI To operate a relay the user could use the simple OpBit command or the WriteSub commands OpBit DWORD sub_unit = 1;...

PCI configuration, highlighting any potential configuration problems. Specific details of all installed Pickering switch cards are included. All the installed Pickering switch cards should be listed in the “Pilpxi information” section - if one or more cards is missing it may be possible to determine the reason by referring to the PCI configuration dump contained in the report, but interpretation of this information is far from straightforward, and the best course is to contact Pickering support: support@pickeringtest.com, if possible...
For PXI modules which are supported in one of Pickering Interfaces’ Modular LXI Chassis (such as the 60-102B and 60-103B) no module software update is required. If the module was introduced after the LXI chassis was manufactured the module may not be recognized, in this case the chassis firmware may need upgrading.
