PXI - 8135 doesn' t turn on

Hello Good morning all, 

I am trying to set up a system for massive MIMO. I have got PXI-1085 chassis and a couple of other equipment for it. My problem is when I installed the PXI - 8135 controller into the chassis and powered on the chassis, it just doesn't give me anything. Everything is connected as mentioned on the manual but it's still not working. Do any of you guys have any idea about it because I am new to this?

Hi, Can please some one let me know whether can I connect PXIe-8375 to my laptop using ExpressCard? if Yes can please let me know the part number of that hardware. I tried to search for the solution in NI web site, but I could not able find.

 

Thanks & Regards,

PXIe read trigger timestamp for 'real' t0

$

0

I looked for a post that addressed my problem, but I couldn't find one that quite answered my question.

 

Based on the below link, the timestamp returned by DAQmx from a `DAQmx Read` operation is indeterminate relative to when its corresponding data was taken:

 

https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z000000P9Q9SAK&l=en-US

 

In my system, I have a PXIe 1085 chassis with a 6674T in the timing slot, a 6683H time reference in slot 9, and many 4303 ADC cards. I send a Global Software Trigger as my Start Trigger from the 6674T. The software trigger is connected to many lines/ports, but the relevant one here is PXI_Trig1. I use `niSync Enable Time Stamp Trigger` and `niSync Read Trigger Time Stamp`  on the 6683H to capture the rising edge of the Start Trigger on PXI_Trig1. I would like to use this as my t0 instead of the one coming from `DAQmx Read`. In my testing, I expected this t0 to be a few microseconds off from the actual time of the first acquired sample (due to the time to ready internal buffers), but I’m observing a lag on the order of 100s of milliseconds (with 1-5 ms variance). To test, I use a PPS signal coming from the 6683H fed into a channel of one ADC to see if the rising edge of the PPS signal lands exactly on the second.

 

So then, is there a way to know the dt between when these ADC cards receive a Start Trigger and when they start filling up their internal buffers? Is it really 100s of milliseconds?

PXI-6683H is not syncing timestamps across multiple cards

In my system i have 3 PXI chassis that each are controlled by a PXIe-8880. Each PXI chassis has a PXI-6683H card. I have a Cisco IE 4000 setup as a PTP time source, which it connects all the 6683H cards together. Two of the chassis timestamps sync. One does not. They all show the same Grandmaster Clock source. They all show a time reference present. I am using MAX test panels to verify this information. I cannot get the third PXI chassis to sync the timestamp with the other two. Anyone have any ideas? Here are the three test panels open. You will notice the two on the right are synced, and the one on the left is not.

Windows 10 Activation on PXIe-8861

Has anyone had issues trying to activate Windows 10 on a PXIe-8861 controller?

I received a PXIe-8861 four days ago and still NI has no clue on how to enable the digital license on this controller. There is none.

MS Activation Support cannot correlate the OS installation ID (Windows + R, slui 4) to valid digital license or product key. Something went amiss with the licensing of Windows 10. It seems that NI tried to save a few bucks by going with MS Windows 10 digital licenses instead of product keys.

We, users in the defense industry, cannot connect the PXI controllers to the internet for activation, we need a product key included with the device.

PXIE4139をオプションを付けて、同軸ケーブル経由で用いたいと思っています。

 

その際に同軸ケーブルのガードとPXIEのLOを物理的に接続して使用する予定です。

コマンドで同軸ケーブルのガードとPXIEのLOを接続することは可能ですか?

 

もしコマンドありましたら、本チケットに追記をお願いします。

FLIR USB 3.0 Camera not detected by PXIe-8135

My Real-Time application requires the use of a FLIR Grasshopper3 USB 3.0 camera. I tried attaching it to all the available USB ports on my PXIe-8135, but my camera failed to show up in NI-MAX for every port.

 

I know this isn't a problem with my code because I tried plugging in a Dell mouse, and that was detected almost immediately by the PXIe.

 

I checked, and USB Support version 1.6 is installed on the PXIe. I also have NI-IMAQ 17.0, NI-IMAQdx 17.0, and NI-IMAQ I/O 17.0 installed. I am using LabVIEW 2017. My camera functions fine when accessed through my desktop, it's only the PXIe that rejects it. I also tested a Logitech webcam, which it did not detect either.

BNC

Hello,

 

I have a BNC-2110 and a desktop computer that doesn't have a NI PICe-8361. Could anyone tell me if there is a way to connect the BNC to the computer without having to use a PXI? I need a simple inexpensive DAQ device.

 

Thank you.

Host isn't starting with a NI PXIe-1073

I have a PXIe-1073 (with a PCI-5122 in peripheral slot 3) attached to the host computer via MXI. The host turns on with the PXIe turning on, as expected, but the host computer appears to be stuck in purgatory. The screen only shows the Windows logo, along with 'Starting Windows'. It's been on this screen for a couple hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Contradictory info about PXI-4110 & PXIe-1078 interoperability?

$

Hi,

    I am new to the NI environment (and data acquisition, really) and I'm trying to pick the components for my first PXI system.  With the positive and negative 20V outputs the PXI-4110 (with optional external supply) is perfect for my needs, and for the chassis the PXIe-1078 seems like a good fit, but I'm finding conflicting information about whether they'll work together.  The -4110 apparently just has a "plain" PXI interface, while the -1078 has only PXIe & PXIe Hybrid slots.  

  • Per the selection table in the Shop, the PXI-4110 just has a PXI interface.
  • The -4110 Getting Started guide says it can be plugged into a PXI or PXIe Hybrid slot.
  • The selection table in the Shop says the PXIe-1078 has 3 PXIe slots, 5 PXIe Hybrid slots, and NO PXI slots.
  • The online advisor tool lets me select the -1078 chassis and -4110 supply with no complaints.
  • This Knowledgebase article says PXI standard modules can't be plugged into PXIe Hybrid slots.  The connector shown in the graphic with the red 'X' certainly looks like the connector in the PXI-4110 photos.

   At least one of these pieces of information has to be wrong, right?  The simplest explanation (and the one I'm hoping for) is that the PXI-4110 actually DOES have a hybrid interface [or "hybrid compatible"... this PXIe-1078 manual  alludes to plugging in PXI modules by modifying the connectors?]  If that's the case, then maybe the PXI-4110's info in the shop needs to be corrected?  Please let me know if I'm misinterpreting something.

 

Thank you!

Hello!

 

This simple single-frame SPI pattern was working for me previously and just started breaking with no change. Any idea why this error is happening? It says I need a capture_stop, but I do have that.

Connecting PXI-8880 to Labtop via Ethernet

I'm trying to connect my laptop to a NI PXIe-8880 controller (via ethernet) to be run remotely. I did not have an operating system installed, hence the need for the laptop. I've connected the laptop to the controller and turned on the PXI chassis, but under devices and interfaces, the PXI system does not show up. Is Ethernet a viable way to connect the laptop to the controller?

IP Address: 192.168.1.XXX vs. 169.254.180.XXX

A highly knowledgeable consultant suggested that I change the IP address on my PXI system from 169.254.180.XXX to 192.168.1.XXX. He said that this would change the IP address to a static address and result in faster loading.  However, when I go into NI MAX, it tells me that my 169... address is a static address.  Is there still a reason for me to switch to 192...?  If so, how do I determine what I should use for the full IP address?

 

Thanks!
