Installing the NI FlexRIO Adapter Module
Complete the following steps to connect the NI FlexRIO adapter module to the NI FlexRIO
FPGA module.
Note
Skip this step if you are not using an adapter module.
1.
Gently insert the guide pins and the high-density card edge of the NI FlexRIO adapter
module into the corresponding connectors of the NI FlexRIO FPGA module, as shown in
Figure 7. The connection may be tight, but do not force the adapter module into place.

2.
Tighten the captive screws on the NI FlexRIO adapter module to secure it to the NI FlexRIO
FPGA module.
3.
Launch LabVIEW to begin configuring your NI FlexRIO system.
Note
MAX only recognizes which FPGA modules are in the chassis. Your adapter
module will not appear in MAX.
NI FlexRIO FPGA Module Signals
Figure 8 shows the available signals on the NI FlexRIO FPGA module. With the exception of
the two footnotes in the following image, the PXI and PXI Express FPGA modules have the
same pinouts. Refer to your adapter module specifications for your adapter module pinout.
