INSTALLATION
For a PXIe System:
• Shut down the system.
• On the card, select the required clock by sliding the on-board switch left
or right.
• With the injector handle in the down position, insert the card into an
empty chassis slot marked with one of the following PXIe Chassis
Glyphs:
* replaced with chassis slot number
Figure 2.1—PXIe Compatible Chassis Glyphs
• While pressing the bottom of the handle against the horizontal rail of the
subrack, move the injector handle up to lock the card in place.
• Secure the card with the screw located at the top of the front panel.
• Restart the system.
• If the system fails to boot, the clock select or chassis slot type may be
incorrectly configured. For more information, refer to Chapter 5.
2.2 Step 2: Install the Driver Software
Drivers allow programmatic control of the PCIe/PXIe card(s) from a host
computer.
The driver installation procedures vary depending on your computer’s operating
system. These procedures are kept on disk so they can be easily updated as oper-
ating systems evolve. Before proceeding with the installation, find, print, and re-
view the driver installation procedure for your operating system.
To install the driver software:
• Insert the driver disk in your drive and browse to the folder for your
product
• Print the driver installation instructions located in a README file on the
software distribution disk in a folder specific to your product
• Follow the instructions from the README file
The installation procedure differs for each operating system, but in most cases,
several files are copied to the host computer system and either the system registry
is modified or configuration files are created.
If you encounter problems, have installation questions, or cannot find instructions
for your operating system, please contact Customer Service (see Section 1.5).
