  • Page 6 NI Industrial Controller ■ Note The NI 9157/9159 requires a host system with a PCI Express clock that complies with the PCI Express Specification. The NI 9157/9159 may not be compatible with systems using noncompliant clocks, particularly clocks with peak frequencies higher than 100 MHz. For...
  • Page 7 Visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code rdsoftwareversion to determine which software you need to use the NI 9157/9159. Mounting the NI 9157/9159 You can mount the chassis horizontally on a 35 mm DIN rail or on a flat, vertical, metallic surface such as a panel or wall. The maximum allowable ambient temperature for operation is 55 °C.
  • Page 8 Allow 50.8 mm (2 in.) in front of modules for cabling clearance for ■ common connectors, such as the 10-terminal, detachable screw terminal connector. Figure 3. NI 9157/9159, Bottom View with Dimensions 29 mm (1.14 in.) Cabling Clearance 50.8 mm (2 in.) 63.5 mm...
  • Page 9 Use the DIN rail mounting method if you already have a DIN rail configuration or if you need to be able to remove the chassis quickly. You can order the NI 9916 DIN rail mount kit if you want to mount the chassis on a DIN rail. You need one clip for mounting the chassis on a standard 35 mm DIN rail.

  • Page 14: Wiring Power To The Chassis

    The NI 9157/9159 requires an external power supply that meets the specifications. The NI 9157/9159 filters and regulates the supplied power and provides power for all of the I/O modules. You must connect a power supply to at least one pair of V and C terminals.
  • Page 15 Connecting One or More NI 9157/9159 Chassis to the MXI- Express Host System or a Target Complete the following steps to connect one or more NI 9157/9159 chassis to a MXI-Express host system or a target. 1. Make sure the MXI-Express host system is set up and configured as described in the MXI-Express (x1) Series User Manual.
  • Page 16 Autoload VI on device powerup Loads the FPGA bit stream from flash memory to the FPGA when the chassis powers on. If you want the NI 9157/9159 to autoload and run a VI at powerup, you must also configure the VI to autoload before you compile it. For more information about autoloading VIs, refer to the LabVIEW FPGA Module Help.
  • Page 17: Powering Down The Mxi-Express System

    Powering Down the MXI-Express System Always power down the host system before powering down any connected NI 9157/9159 chassis. When the host system is powered down, the order in which the NI 9157/9159 chassis are powered down is not important.
