Installing the PXI-8170 Series
This section contains general installation instructions for the PXI-8170.
Consult your PXI mainframe user manual for specific instructions and
warnings.
1. Plug in your mainframe before installing the PXI-8170. The power
cord grounds the mainframe and protects it from electrical damage
while you install the module. (Make sure the power switch is
turned off.)
Warning To protect both yourself and the mainframe from electrical hazards, leave the
mainframe off until you finish installing the PXI-8170 module.
2. Remove or open any doors or covers blocking access to the system
controller slot (Slot 1) in the mainframe.
