NI-6589 Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, you must attach EMI gaskets (NI part number 746228-01) to both sides of your NI 6589 before using. Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, you must install PXI EMC Filler Panels (NI part number 778700-01) in all open chassis slots.
NI-6589 Unpacking Caution To prevent ESD from damaging the devices, ground yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded object, such as your computer chassis. 1. Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of the computer chassis.
MAX is automatically installed with FlexRIO Support. 1. Launch MAX by navigating to Start » All Programs » National Instruments » NI MAX or by clicking the NI MAX desktop icon.
NI-6589 Cables Caution You must operate the NI 6589 with shielded cables and shielded accessories to ensure compliance with the EMC requirements defined in the NI 6589 Specifications. Do not use unshielded cables or accessories unless they are installed in a shielded enclosure with properly designed and shielded input/output ports and are connected to the NI 6589 using a shielded cable.

NI-6589 Caution Connections that exceed any of the maximum ratings of any connector on the NI 6589 can damage the device and the chassis. NI is not liable for any damage resulting from such connections. Note If you design a custom cabling solution with the Infiniband connector (779157-01) and the SHB12X-B12X LVDS shielded cable (192344-01), the NI 6589 pinout is reversed at the end connector.
