Unpacking the Kit

Notice To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) from damaging the module,

ground yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded object, such as

your computer chassis.

1. Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of the computer chassis.

2. Remove the module from the package and inspect it for loose components or other signs

of damage.

Notice Never touch the exposed pins of connectors.

Note Do not install a module if it appears damaged in any way.

3. Unpack any other items and documentation from the kit.

Store the module in the antistatic package when the module is not in use.

PXIe-6594 Kit Contents

The following items are included in the device kit:

• PXIe-6594

• Documentation:

–PXIe-6594 Getting Started Guide (this document)

–PXIe-6594 Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information

Preparing the Environment

Ensure the environment in which you are using the PXIe-6594 meets the following

specifications.

Operating environment

Ambient temperature range 0 °C to 55 °C1

Relative humidity range 10% to 90%, noncondensing

Maximum altitude 2,000 m (800 mbar) (at 25 °C ambient

temperature)

Pollution Degree 2

1The PXIe-6594 requires a chassis with slot cooling capacity ≥58 W. Not all chassis with slot

cooling capacity ≥58 W can achieve this ambient temperature range. Refer to the PXI Chassis

Manual for specifications to determine the ambient temperature ranges your chassis can achieve.

PXIe-6594 Getting Started Guide | © National Instruments | 3

Indoor use only.

Note For complete specifications, refer to the specifications document for your

device at ni.com/manuals.

Installing the Software and Driver Using NI

Package Manager

Before you install your hardware, you must install the application software and driver using NI

Package Manager. If you do not already have NI Package Manager installed, visit ni.com/r/

nipmdownload to download.

Follow the prompts in NI Package Manager to install the software in the following order:

1. Install LabVIEW.

2. Install the LabVIEW FPGA Module.

3. (Optional) Install the LabVIEW Real-Time Module.

4. Install FlexRIO.

Installing the PXIe-6594

Notice To prevent damage to the PXIe-6594 caused by ESD or contamination,

handle the module using the edges or the metal bracket.

1. Ensure the AC power source is connected to the chassis before installing the module.

The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you

install the module.

2. Power off the chassis.

3. Inspect the slot pins on the chassis backplane for any bends or damage prior to

installation. Do not install a module if the backplane is damaged.

4. Remove the black plastic covers from all the captive screws on the module front panel.

5. Identify a supported slot in the chassis. The following figure shows the symbols that

indicate the slot types.

4| ni.com | PXIe-6594 Getting Started Guide

PXIe-6594 modules can be placed in PXI Express peripheral slots, PXI Express hybrid

peripheral slots, or PXI Express system timing slots.

6. Touch any metal part of the chassis to discharge static electricity.

7. Ensure that the ejector handle is in the downward (unlatched) position.

8. Place the module edges into the module guides at the top and bottom of the chassis. Slide

the module into the slot until it is fully inserted.

3. Ejector Handle in Downward (Unlatched) Position

9. Latch the module in place by pulling up on the ejector handle.

10. Secure the module front panel to the chassis using the front-panel mounting screws.

Note Tightening the top and bottom mounting screws increases mechanical

stability and also electrically connects the front panel to the chassis, which can

improve the signal quality and electromagnetic performance.

11. Cover all empty slots using EMC filler panels or fill using slot blockers to maximize

cooling air flow, depending on your application.

12. Power on the chassis.

Configuring the PXIe-6594 in MAX

Use Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure your NI hardware. MAX

informs other programs about which NI hardware products are in the system and how they are

configured. MAX is automatically installed with FlexRIO.

1. Launch MAX.

2. In the configuration tree, expand Devices and Interfaces to see the list of installed NI

hardware.

Installed modules appear under the name of their associated chassis.

3. Expand your Chassis tree item.

MAX lists all modules installed in the chassis. Your default names may vary.

Note If you do not see your module listed, press <F5> to refresh the list of

installed modules. If the module is still not listed, power off the system, ensure

the module is correctly installed, and restart.

4. Record the identifier MAX assigns to the hardware. Use this identifier when

programming the PXIe-6594.

5. Self-test the hardware by selecting the item in the configuration tree and clicking Self-

Test in the MAX toolbar.

The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.

FlexRIO Examples

FlexRIO includes several example applications for LabVIEW. These examples serve as

interactive tools, programming models, and as building blocks in your own applications.

Accessing FlexRIO Examples

FlexRIO examples are available in LabVIEW's NI Example Finder. Complete the following

steps to access the examples by task.

1. In LabVIEW, click Help»Find Examples.
