This chapter contains information about installing and configuring your PXIe-8840 controller.
Installing the PXIe-8840
This section contains general installation instructions for the PXIe-8840. Consult your
PXI Express chassis user manual for specific instructions and warnings.
1. Plug in your chassis before installing the PXIe-8840. The power cord grounds the chassis
and protects it from electrical damage while you install the module.
Caution To protect both yourself and the chassis from electrical hazards, leave the
chassis powered off until you finish installing the PXIe-8840 module.
• Remove any filler panels blocking access to the system controller slot (Slot 1) in the
chassis.
• Touch the metal part of the case to discharge any static electricity that might be on your
clothes or body.
2. Remove the protective plastic covers from the four bracket-retaining screws as shown in
Figure 2-1.
