Leading EDGE COMPUTING Ensure that there is no shipping and handling-related damage to components before installation or modification. Do not apply power to any equipment if it has been damaged. CAUTION: 2.3 Installing the PCIe-8560 on a Host Computer 1. Power off your host computer. 2.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 2.4 Installing the PXIe-8565 in a PXIe Chassis 1. Remove the cover panel of the system slot. 2. Remove the PXIe-8565 from the packaging. Note: Wear anti-static gloves and use an anti-static sur- face when handling the card. 3.
PCIe-PXIe-8565 Connecting the Host Computer and PXI Chassis This section illustrates how to connect a PCIe cable assembly between the the PCIe-8560 on your host computer and the PXIe-8565 on the PXI chassis. Removing the PCIe cable assembly after the system is pow- ered on may cause system errors or data loss.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 2.6 Power On/Power Off Sequence To power on the PCIe to PXIe Extension Kit: 1. Ensure that the extension cable is properly connected to the host PC and PXIe chassis. 2. Power on the PXIe chassis. 3. When the status LEDs of the PXI Express chassis and all installed modules indicate ready, power on the host DO NOT remove the cable after the system and PXIe chassis are powered on.
