PXIS-2719A

3 System Management

The PXIS-2719A provides advanced remote monitoring and con-

trol of chassis status, including internal temperature, fan speed,

and DC voltages, all exported via a standard RS-232 port, allow-

ing the system to be monitored on a remote computer. The remote

computer can also be used to turn the system on or off through the

monitoring port via software commands.

Remote monitoring and control of the PXIS-2719A requires con-

nection of the remote monitoring port to a remote computer by a

standard RS-232 cable.

ADLINK provides an interface-based program (PXISRemoteMo-

nUtil.exe) to monitor the status of PXIS-2719A via a remote com-

puter. As shown, the utility is divided into three interface

categories:

X Connect Control

X Threshold & Control

X Chassis Status.

NOTE:

The remote monitor port is Rx-Tx/Tx-Rx crossed, requiring a

Rx-Rx/Tx-Tx connected RS-232 cable for remote monitoring.
