INSTALLATION GUIDE

NI PXI-8109

This document contains information about installing the NI PXI-8109

controller in a PXI chassis. For complete configuration and troubleshooting

information (including information about BIOS setup, adding RAM, and so

on), refer to the NI PXI-8109 User Manual. The manual is in PDF format

on the documentation CD included with the controller and on the National

Instruments website, ni.com.

Installing the NI PXI-8109

This section contains general installation instructions for the NI PXI-8109.

Consult the NI PXI-8109 User Manual for specific instructions and

warnings.

1. Plug in the chassis before installing the NI PXI-8109. The power cord

grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you

install the module. (Make sure the power switch is turned off.)

Caution To protect both yourself and the chassis from electrical hazards, leave the chassis

off until you finish installing the NI PXI-8109 module.

2. Remove any panels blocking access to the system controller slot

(slot 1) in the chassis.

3. Touch the metal part of the case to discharge any static electricity that

might be on your clothes or body.

4. Remove the protective plastic covers from the four bracket-retaining

screws as shown in Figure 1.

5. Make sure the injector/ejector handle is in its downward position.

Align the NI PXI-8109 with the card guides on the top and bottom of

the system controller slot.

Caution Do not raise the injector/ejector handle as you insert the NI PXI-8109. The

module will not insert properly unless the handle is in its downward position so that it does

not interfere with the injector rail on the chassis.

6. Hold the handle as you slowly slide the module into the chassis until

the handle catches on the injector/ejector rail.

7. Raise the injector/ejector handle until the module firmly seats into the

backplane receptacle connectors. The front panel of the NI PXI-8109

should be even with the front of the chassis.

8. Tighten the four bracket-retaining screws on the top and bottom of the

front panel to secure the NI PXI-8109 to the chassis.

9. Check the installation.

10. Connect the keyboard and mouse to the USB connectors. If you are

using a PS/2 keyboard and a PS/2 mouse, use USB-to-PS/2 adapters

to connect both to the USB connectors on the front panel. You may

use a Y-splitter adapter to connect both keyboard and mouse to one

USB port, leaving the other USB ports free for other peripherals, such

as a CD-ROM drive, or secondary hard drive. National Instruments

offers a Y-splitter adapter cable, part number 778713-02, available

through the online catalog at ni.com/products.

11. Connect the DVI monitor video cable to the DVI connector. If you are

using a VGA monitor, use the DVI-to-VGA adapter included with

your kit.

12. Connect peripherals to ports as required by your system configuration.

13. Power on the display. Refer to the NI PXI-8109 User Manual for

details.

14. Power on the chassis.

15. Verify that the controller boots. If it does not boot, refer to the What If

the NI PXI-8109 Does Not Boot? section later in this guide.

How to Remove the Controller from the PXI Chassis

The NI PXI-8109 controllers are designed for easy handling. To remove

the unit from the PXI chassis:

1. Turn off power.

2. Remove cables from the controller front panel.

3. Loosen the bracket-retaining screws in the front panel.

4. Press the injector/ejector handle down.

5. Slide the unit out of the chassis.

What If the NI PXI-8109 Does Not Boot?

Several problems can cause a controller not to boot. Here are some things

to look for and possible solutions.

Things to Notice

• Which LEDs come on? The PWR OK/FAULT LED should stay lit

green. The Drive LED should blink during boot as the disk is accessed.

• What appears on the display? Does it hang at some particular point

(BIOS, Operating System, etc.)? If nothing appears on the screen,

try a different monitor. Does your monitor work with a different PC?

If it hangs, note the last screen output that you saw for reference when

consulting National Instruments technical support.

at ni.com/patents.

• What has changed about the system? Did you recently move the

system? Was there electrical storm activity? Did you recently add a

new module, memory chip, or piece of software?

Things to Try

• Make sure the chassis is plugged in to a working power source.

• Check any fuses or circuit breakers in the chassis or other power

supply (possibly an uninterruptible power supply).

• Make sure the controller module is firmly seated in the chassis.

• Remove all other modules from the chassis.

• Remove any nonessential cables or devices.

• Try the controller in a different chassis or a similar controller in this

same chassis.

• Clear the CMOS. (Refer to the System CMOS section of the

NI PXI-8109 User Manual.)

• Recover the hard drive on the controller. (Refer to the Hard Drive

Recovery section of the NI PXI-8109 User Manual.)

• Ensure that the RAM is properly seated.

For more troubleshooting information, refer to the NI PXI-8109 User

Manual. The manual is in PDF format on the documentation CD included

with your controller and on the National Instruments Web site, ni.com.

What If I Can’t See the Video?

This problem usually results from having the video card output set past the

limits of the monitor. You will need to boot Windows in Safe Mode. To do

this, reboot the controller. As Windows begins to boot, hold down <F8>.

You should now be able to reset the video driver to lower settings. Try

setting the resolution to 640 × 480 and the refresh rate to 60 Hz. Once you

reboot, you can raise these values again, using the test option in Windows.

These settings are accessible through the Advanced tab of the Display item

in the Control Panel. Alternately, you can try a different monitor,

preferably a newer and larger one.
