PCI Configuration
One of the first items to check when there is a problem with any PCI board is to examine the system PCI
configuration and ensure that there are no conflicts with other PCI or system devices. The PCI Diagnostic
program (cpcidiag.exe) allows examination of the PCI configuration registers and can save this
information to a text file. Run the program via the Windows Start Menu shortcut Start • Programs •
DALSA • Sapera LT • Tools • PCI Diagnostics.
As shown in the following screen image, use the first drop menu to select the PCI device to examine.
Select the device from DALSA. Note the bus and slot number of the installed board (this will be unique
for each system unless systems are setup identically). Click on the Diagnostic button to view an analysis
of the system PCI configuration space.
Clicking on the Diagnostic button opens a new window with the diagnostic report. From the PCI Bus
Number drop menu select the bus number that the X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 is installed in—in this example
the slot is bus 1.
The window now shows the I/O and memory ranges used by each device on the selected PCI bus. The
information display box will detail any PCI conflicts. If there is a problem, click on the Save button. A
file named ‘pcidiag.txt’ is created (in the Sapera\bin directory) with a dump of the PCI configuration
registers. Email this file when requested by the DALSA Technical Support group along with a full
description of your computer.
