mxi express boot

I have a system with a PXI 1085 and a NI SMU-PCIe8371, NI SMU-PCIe8372 PCI Express control of PXI Express, which was controlled by a Dell Precision T5600 with Windows 7 and a NVIDIA Quadro 2000 graphics card.  I had installed the software compatibility MXI and things worked very well.  I could see in MAX and use the cards in the chassis.  I decided to upgrade the 8371 to the 8381 (SMU-PCIe8381 NI, NI SMU-8384 PCI Express (x 8 Gen 2) control of PXI Express).

I put 8381 in x 16 slots empty (there are no x 8 slots on the motherboard).  When I turn on the computer, if I have the chassis connected monitor does not display anything and that even if the computer gets power, he does not seem to start, if I unplug the chassis, then the computer starts very well.

In a similar thread user deleted all cards except the MXI Express card and it worked, I tried to remove all of the cards in my chassis, with the exception of the SMU-8384 (of course) and I still have the same problem.

This gives a test:

Press the switch DIP Compat BIOS on the PCIe-8381 in position (position 1 of the switch, should be labelled).  This indicates the card that you use software compatibility MXI.  This should allow the system startup and one of two things will happen...

(1) things work very well, and you're all set.

(2) the system starts, but you won't see the chassis.

#2 case, install the latest version of the software compatibility MXI, reboot and try again.  The thought here is that it is possible that if you have installed this software there are long enough (several months) that you are on a version of the software which does not support the 8381.  The latest version should work fine.

  • Mounted daqmx calendar/trigger on 2 chassis mxi-express

    I have 2 chassis SMU (including one with a RT controller) connected with SMU-SMU/8384-8381-MXI-express boards.

    I can see all the devices in both chassis and can configure DAQmx tasks in each chassis individually, but I can't create any single task with a device of two chassis. When there is a feature of two chassis in the task, I get:

    Error-89125 occurred at DAQmx start Task.vi:7220002

    No registered trigger could be found between the devices in the range... Make sure that there is a trigger line available on the bus triggering shared between devices.

    Is this possible in the software? Or should I add material?  I can't find any docs or examples on this subject, other than a promising article on Veristand (ni.com/white-paper/14637/en/, #2) but I can't implement in MAX or NV. Timing is not critical (50 to 100 ms is very good), I just need many devices on 2 sites, so the MXI solution seems to fit in. I thought the solution was to use the local clock on each chassis and set up a trigger shared/exported, but impossible to find something that works.

    Thank you!

    Hey brimcd,

    You are right; It is not a way to send a trigger between chassis without timing card.  This link goes into a bit more detail: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/D91582EBF0810F4486256E70004E4145

  • NEITHER 9219 fully supported on the RIO MXI-Express?

    I'm trying to choose for my RIO MXI-Express chassis cRIO modules and I fell on the NI 9219 universal module.  While reading the user guide, I noticed that it is said in two separate sections as the 'Digital mode' and "Mode of Contact open' is 'supported only in CompactRIO systems." As I don't have the actual hardware for me to test, I created a LabVIEW project using the FPGA Wizard and he had to instantiate a chassis of RIO MXI-Express (NI 9159) connected directly under 'my computer '.  I then load a NI 9219 module and set 0 "Digital In" mode and Channel 1 channel mode "open Contact".   After that I dragged & filed two channel nodes in my block diagram and I was happy to see that the LabVIEW compiler thinks that everything is OK.

    So my question is, whenever I read "is supported only on the CompactRIO systems" does also include MXI-Express RIO systems as well?  If so, it seems that some documentation for cRIO modules should be updated.

    Yes, the RIO MXI-Express is deemed part of the cRIO system.  In addition, for lovers of the future forum, the chassis Ethernet RIO and EtherCAT RIO are also part of the cRIO system.

  • MXI-Express in an expansion slot ExpressCard from NVIDIA does not.

    I'm trying to get a DELL Latitude E6400 to connect to the controller of the PXI-8360. I use Windows 7 64-bit. I think that the problem may be that my DELL's ExpressCard slot is actually an expansion of NVIDIA ExpressCard slot and therefore not directly controlled by the BIOS (I guess). I use 8.6.1f1 of LabVIEW with as much current as I can find, especially MAX 4.6.2 and the PXI Platform Service 2.5.3 and Nov09 of device drivers. I have searched through the forums and tried solutions as much as I can find. The DELL BIOS upgrade A19, I tried the compatibility software BIOS MXI-Express 1.2 but I can't install it because the installer complains that my system is not 32-bit. I'm about to update the NVIDIA driver but I have my doubts about this work. My suspicion is that because housing ExpressCard is a slot on the NVIDIA card it will be difficult, if not impossible, to find a workaround.

    Any thoughts?

    If there is only 1 bridge looming, the card is probably in compatibility mode, which requires a driver.

    Try plugging (ExpressCard only) on a system with the driver installed, and then run the configuration utility (all programs-> National Instruments-> MXI - Express-> Configuration card ExpressCard-8360) and disable compatibility mode.  Then, it should work in your other system.

  • PXI-8360 (MXI-Express) PCI-8361 + Dell OptiPlex 9020 = "device cannot start." (Code 10) »

    Hello

    I have a chassis PXI-1050, conencted to a Dell OptiPlex 9020 via a PXI-8360 and a PCI-8361 (identified as 199392B - 01L). It is Windows 7 64-bit. I can't start Windows very well, but MAX can't see all my PXI hardware. The Device Manager has also 2 inputs "PCI standard PCI to PCI bridge" with exclamation points.

    I placed an old FireWire PCI card in the same dwelling and recognized PC. Thus, the slot went very well.

    I transferred the PCI-8361 to an old PC that contains older drivers, and he acknowledged all my PXI hardware. For example, PXI gear works fine.

    What could be the problem? Here's a screenshot of my software OR installed. I think I installed all the drivers I need. I checked NI Update Service; There is no update of Critcal, and only updates and Service Packs listed are 2013 LabVIEW and TestStand 2013.

    JKSH,

    I look in that little bit more and think that I now know enough to be dangerous.

    The BIOS allows the PCI Express native control mode in Windows.  PCIe natively do not like some of the architecture when you use the PCI card version, so it disables the bridges on the PXI card.  I can tell that your OS is PCIe natively because it lists one of the ports as "PCI standard PCI Express to PCI/PCI-X bridge" Device Manager like you posted.

    I found that you can disable PCIe native mode, if you want to try it (but in general using the card PCIe is a better option).  Here are the steps:

    -Open the start menu and type "cmd" in the search box; Right click on "cmd.exe" and run as administrator.

    -In the command window, type "bcdedit/set pciexpress forcedisable.

    -Reboot.

    I don't think it would break anything (it doesn't have on a system I've tried).  If you want to reverse the trend, the command is ' bcdedit/set pciexpress by default'

  • x 8 connection distance MXI causes conflicts with my on my Dell Precision T3600 PCI slot

    Hi all

    The easiest to say is that I am migrating from a x 4 MXI explicit connection to an x 8 MXI express connection and when I do I get an error on the motherboard which is unable to load the single PCI slot.

    Error in WIn7 64 bit Device Manager reports a yellow exclamation point

    Device "Intel (r) 82801 PCI Bridge - 244 properties"

    The error listed in the device status box: "this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31) »

    Unfortunately, I need this slot machine to run a card calendar to conjucton with PXI hardware. There is no anomaly when I used the x 4 connections with virtually the same loadout except for one Exchange a PXI-5122 (x 4 config) to SMU 5122 (x 8 config).

    If I leave the MXI PCIe card in but do not connect to chassis PCI slot SMU (and the fine card appear.)

    If I remove the PCI card into the slot, the error still occurs.

    I swapped the x 8 card and NVidia graphics card without success (the 16 x only two slots).

    I photographed the reader and removed the H310 Dell PERC RAID card and charged the RAID array RAID integrated Intel C600 and still no change.

    I have updated BIOS to A07 to latest A08.

    I updated the Intel Chipset at the latest on the Dell Web site.

    I guess that I just wonder at this point if someone is able to run a x 8 MXI express at SMU with a Dell Precision T3600, T5600 or a T7600 chassis.

    After much work by NI Applications Engineer Kyle K, this problem has been resolved.

    I'll post the solution to this PC dependent problem here, just in case it will help others in a similar situation.

    It seems that Dell sometimes uses one default BIOS quite restrictive on the number of PCI bus in these (and other). By allowing several PCI bus, you will be able to list all the devices in the sacrifice of some memory available for OS 32 bit running on 4 GB of RAM. No problem for me because I'm under 64 bit OS.

    Congratulations to Kyle even if he has not posted here yet for him give real congratulations.

  • Can I connect a link more MXI for PXI-1033 card in order to work with it

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    Tell me please that I can plug a card of MXI link more in the PXI-1033 chassis in order to work with it.

    In other words, I don't use the built-in controller for MXI and want to work with the NI PXI-8366 MXI-Express and PXI-1033.

    Thank you.

    The answer to your question is no. The question that must be taken into consideration is the type of housing, we have access to on the PXI-1033. To use a PXI MXI card for control purposes in a PXI system, we need to use the card in a slot of system controller (denoted by a triangle around the number of slots on the chassis). With the 1033 however, we have no access to slots control. Because of the connection of controller MXI incorporated, we only have access to a calendar/trigger and devices slots.

    Is there a particular reason you don't want to use on the 1033 MXI connection, or you just want to avoid having to change the connection to another computer?  Single MXI cards which would depend on the space available on the PXI-1033 would be something along the lines of the 8367 and 8367, who are used to the Garland of a separate chassis.

  • copper MXI noise immunity

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    Advice me please on the copper MXI link noise immunity.

    that is, crashes to the top or other problems with it

    Hi Current 93,

    The MXI - 4 and MXI-Express conform to the standards of the immunity measure, control of process and Laboratory Equipment - 61326.  This information, as well as to other EMC nonconformities found in the section titled 'Electromagnetic compatibility' in the MXI-4 kit and MXI-Express user manuals.  Second, the two protocols have error correction to ensure that the data are received successfully, even in a noisy and hard environment.  If you are concerned about the loss of data on a copper line, have you considered using a fiber optic cable?

    Comparing MXI to Ethernet, the two cables have error checking and are quite tolerant in noisy environments.  Problems with data loss on your MXI lines?

    Thank you!

  • Card PCI Express causes conflict w/ethernet card

    When I install the card PCI/MXI express, it causes a conflict with my existing ethernt card and will not allow the CPU to register on the network.  When I remove the PCI card, the problem goes away.  Is there something I need to set up to prevent this?

    What the MXI device?  What is the model number and part (e.g., PCIe-8361 and C 195315 - 01 L)?  I've seen this behaviour before with a PCIe-8361 and to relieve this symptom I made sure a PXI system power has been connected to the MXI controller before turning off the computer.  I would be interested in hearing if this works for you.

    See you soon!

  • NIDAQ800_RedHat.ISO DAQmxSet / GetBufInputBufSize)

    Hello.

    It helps for the first time.

    The program of the module S series HAVE as PXI-6133 is developed using the version of the C/C++ API of Linux DAQmx8.0.
    (NIDAQ800_RedHat.iso)

    It occurs in the place where the task is made to commit by the DAQmxTaskContol of-50352 function.

    The BufInputBufSize seem to influence whether we look at it.

    PXI-6133 is a mistake in a case when making it to 5 400 000 with OK when you're 5 300 000.

    PXI-6133 is a mistake in both cases, when making it to 2 800 000 with OK when you're 2 700 000.

    PXI-6133 is a mistake in three cases by making 1 900 000 with OK when you're 1 800 000.

    To achieve a multi channel (about 40) and sampling at high speed (up to 1 ms/s), the BufInputBufSize is flexible specified.
    (MXI - 4 was the execution of 78Mbyte/s transfer MXI-Express has the execution of transfer of 110Mbyte/Sec.)

    I want to do.

    BufInputBufSize has been studied in the DAQmx8.7.2 of Windows version.

    When using two PXI-6133, 8 000 000 could be defined.

    The limitation of the Linux version very much hope for improvement, because the patch is acceptable if it is a problem with DAQmx.

    Please teach if there is an action method if it is a nucleus and a problem with LinuxOS.

    Best regards, I hope.

    Sorry for the delay to return to you.  I've been a bit busy with a number of other things.  I was talking with a colleague the other day and he had a recommendation that could help.  NOR-DAQmx 8 for Linux uses apparently vmalloc to allocate kernel memory buffers.  However, the vmalloc space is only 128 MB on systems with more than 896 MB of space.  I have not had the chance to try this out, but you can increase the amount of vmalloc space by adding "vmalloc = 512M" to your kernel in grub boot line.  The upper limit to vmalloc space is< 1="" gb. ="" since="" it="" sounds="" like="" you="" have="" plenty="" of="" ram="" it="" seems="" like="" a="" reasonable="" way="" to="">

  • PXI-ExpressCard8360 on laptop Linux

    A PXI-ExpressCard8360 is usable on a laptop with Linux?

    Is this possible? All the world does?

    I have a laptop that uses the PXI-ExpressCard8360 to connect to a chassis PXI-1036 MXI express with Windows 7. My client asked to bring the app to Linux and I found some information on the modules I use, but nothing about anyone using the ExpressCard connection.

    Matt,

    The PXI-ExpressCard8360 kit you mentioned will work as well in Linux as "regular" kits planned MXI that you do not use NI MXI-Express BIOS software compatibility to work around BIOS problems.

    "" If you don't know if you use it, look for "all programs" National Instruments "Configuration of the ExpressCard-8360 card" on a working system (Windows).  If it is not installed, then you should be good.  If this is the case, start to check the configuration of your card ExpressCard (see the Readme with the software for further instructions).  If you can disable compatibility mode, uninstall software compatibility OR MXI - Express BIOS, reboot and run normally then you should be good.

  • Acquire more than 2047 samples with the PXI-4461 instaled in SMU-1073

    Hi all, I would ask you for help with the buffer limit.

    I intend to buy digitizer PXI-4461 and he instal in SMU-1073 chassis, namely control via MXI Express of Labview installed on a separate computer.

    What I need:

    -to acquire data of a single channel of AI, but at least a sequence of 20 kS by a acquire task, in some situations until 200kS by a task to acquire.

    The question:

    - I can gain more than 2047 samples in a single sequence, like 200kS, with the PXI-4461 installed in SMU-1073?

    Internal buffer of the PXI-4461 is reserved to 2047 samples. So I'm not sure if Labview can download remotely via MXI Express the data in the buffer of the PXI-4461 via MXI Express fast enough without any affection of the sampling program.

    -in the case, this PXI-4461 with SMU-1073 isn't the right combination, what chassis and a controller can do?

    Thanks much for the reply

    Jan

    It will work for you.

    The on-board buffer 2047-sample is used only as a backup if the flow of data to the PC host (via MXI Express in this case) is not fast enough... that it will be (explained below).  DAQmx transfers data from the buffer of the device to the host PC as fast as he can and, in ideal conditions, should not save the buffer 2047 much at all.

    Let's just say you get 110 MB/s (randomly from a MXI data sheet) flow on your MXI connection.  The 4461 has 2 analog inputs, which will be at 24 bits, we just round 32-bit in case it transfers the data in this way.

    4 bytes/sample (32 bit) x 200,000 s/s x 2 (channels) = 1.6 MB/s, which is well below the 110 MB/s, which will make the MXI link.

    clear as mud?
