INSTALLATION GUIDE

NI PXIe-8106

This document contains information about installing your NI PXIe-8106

controller in a PXI Express chassis. For complete configuration and

troubleshooting information (including information about BIOS setup,

adding RAM, etc.), refer to the NI PXIe-8106 User Manual. The manual is

in PDF format on the recovery CD included with your controller and on the

National Instruments Web site, ni.com/manuals.

Installing the NI PXIe-8106

This section contains general installation instructions for the

NI PXIe-8106. Consult your PXI chassis user manual for specific

instructions and warnings.

1. Plug in your chassis before installing the NI PXIe-8106. The power

cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while

you install the module. Make sure the chassis power is turned off.

In some National Instruments chassis, such as the NI PXIe-1062Q,

ensure that the power LED is off. For more information about chassis

power behavior, refer to the user manual for the specific chassis.

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

(Slot 1) in the chassis.

3. Touch the metal part of the chassis 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 PXIe-8106 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 PXIe-8106. 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 PXIe-8106

should be even with the front panel of the chassis.

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

front panel to secure the NI PXIe-8106 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 devices to ports as required by your system configuration.

13. Power on the chassis.

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

the NI PXIe-8106 Does Not Boot? section later in this guide.

How to Remove the Controller from the PXI Chassis

The NI PXIe-8106 controller is designed for easy handling. To remove the

unit from the PXI Express chassis, complete the following steps.

1. Power off the chassis.

2. Unscrew the bracket-retaining screws in the front panel.

3. Press the injector/ejector handle down.

4. Slide the unit out of the chassis.

What If the NI PXIe-8106 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 Power OK LED should stay lit. 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.

• 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?

• Refer to your chassis user manual for additional troubleshooting steps.

Things to Try

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

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

supply (possibly a UPS).

• 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 PXIe-8106 User Manual.)

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

Recovery section of the NI PXIe-8106 User Manual.)

For more troubleshooting information, refer to the NI PXIe-8106 User

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

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

manuals.

What If I Cannot 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.

If the system has been booted without a monitor attached, the

NI PXIe-8106 may have defaulted to the video output connector being

disabled. Press <Ctrl-Alt-F1> to re-enable the video display in Windows.

Press <Ctrl-Alt-F4> to re-enable a DVI display. For more information, refer

to KnowledgeBase 3OHCFRD8 at ni.com/support.
