Chapter 3 Configuring Your SCXI Hardware and Software
Getting Started with SCXI 3-40 www.ni.com
Use the following procedure to configure your SCXI-1162 module:
1. Select parallel or serial mode.
Use jumper W2 to select whether the module transfers data in parallel
to a digital DAQ device (or the DIO-24 connector of an MIO-16D
device) or serially to either a digital or an analog DAQ device. For
more information see Table 3-30. If you use parallel mode, you must
also set the number of parallel lines using jumper W1.
2. Select 24 or 32 lines.
If jumper W2 is set to parallel mode, you can use jumper W1 to select
whether the module transfers 24 or 32 parallel lines of data to the
device. If you are using a DIO-24 or the digital connector (pins 51
through 100) of an MIO-16D, you must select 24 lines. If you are using
a DIO-32 or a DIO-96/PnP, select 32 lines. If you are using an analog
DAQ device, set jumper W2 to the serial position, which makes the
position of W1 irrelevant. For more information see Table 3-31.
