Hardware Installation
You can install the SCXI-1120/D in any available SCXI chassis. The
following are general installation instructions. Consult your SCXI chassis
manual for specific instructions and warnings.
1. Turn off the computer that contains the DAQ device or disconnect it
from your SCXI chassis.
2. Turn off the SCXI chassis. Do not insert the SCXI-1120/D into a
chassis that is powered on.
3. Insert the SCXI-1120/D into the module guides. Gently guide the
module into the back of the slot until the connectors make contact.
If you have already installed a cable assembly in the rear of the chassis,
the module and cable assembly must be firmly engaged; however,
do not force the module into place.
4. Screw the front mounting panel of the SCXI-1120/D to the top and
bottom threaded strips of your SCXI chassis.
5. If you are connecting the module to a DAQ device, connect the
cable assembly from the rear signal connector of your module to the
I/O connector of your DAQ device by following the instructions in
your cable installation guide.
Note
Cable your DAQ device to only one module in each chassis.
6. Visually verify the installation.
7. Turn on the SCXI chassis.
