Chapter 1 Getting Started Optional Equipment Memory Upgrades You can upgrade the NI 8352/8353 memory to a maximum of 8 GB. Note A 32-bit operating system such as Windows XP Pro addresses a maximum of 4 GB. The NI 8352/8353 supports dual-channel DDR-II SDRAM unbuffered memory in four 240-pin DIMM sockets. The NI 8352/8353 supports ECC memory. National Instruments has tested and verified that the DDR-II DIMMs we sell work with the NI 8352/8353.
Chapter 1 Getting Started National Instruments Software National Instruments has developed several software kits you can use with the NI 8352/8353. National Instruments hardware and software work together to help you make the most of your PXI Express system. The LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, and LabWindows™/CVI™ application development environments combine with leading hardware drivers such as NI-DAQmx to provide exceptional control of NI hardware. Instrument drivers are available at ni.
Chapter 1 Getting Started National Instruments modular instruments use specialized drivers suited to each product’s specialization. Express VIs provide customized, interactive programming of instruments in a single interface, and soft front panels provide an interface for testing the functionality of each instrument with no programming required. NI switches, DMMs, high-speed DIO, high-speed digitizers, and sources each have customized drivers for high-end modular instrumentation systems.

4 Common Configuration Questions This chapter answers common configuration questions you may have when using the NI 8352/8353. General Questions What do the LEDs on the NI 8352/8353 front panel mean? The power indicator lights when the main power is turned on. The LAN status LEDs flash to when there is activity on LAN1 and LAN2. The hard drive LED lights when there is hard drive activity on the NI 8352/8353. For more information, refer to Figure 1-1, Front View of the NI 8352/8353.
Chapter 4 Common Configuration Questions • An external USB mass storage device such as a USB hard drive or CD-ROM You should enable Legacy USB support to boot from USB devices. Refer to the BIOS Setup section of Chapter 2, Installation and BIOS Setup, for more information. Note • An external USB floppy drive Note There are some limitations when booting from a USB device. Windows XP can be installed from a USB CD-ROM, but earlier versions of Windows cannot.
Chapter 4 Common Configuration Questions Figure 4-1. Multichassis Configuration in MAX Basic PXI System Configuration 1. Launch MAX. 2. In the Configuration tree, click the Devices and Interfaces branch to expand it. 3. If the PXI system controller has not yet been configured, it is labeled PXI System (Unidentified). Right-click this entry to display the pop-up menu, then select the appropriate controller model from the Identify As submenu. 4. Click the PXI System controller.
Chapter 4 Common Configuration Questions The PXI specification allows many combinations of PXI chassis and system modules. To assist system integrators, the manufacturers of PXI chassis and system modules must document the capabilities of their products. The minimum documentation requirements are contained in .ini files, which consist of ASCII text. System integrators, configuration utilities, and device drivers can use these .ini files.
5 Troubleshooting This chapter answers common troubleshooting questions you may have when using the NI 8352/8353. What if the NI 8352/8353 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 indicator LED should stay lit. The hard disk drive LEDs should blink during boot as the disk is accessed.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting My NI 8352/8353 boots fine until I get to Windows, at which point I cannot read the screen. This may include garbled output, white screen, black screen, or an out of synch message from the monitor. 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 NI 8352/8353. As Windows begins to boot, hold down .

Appendix B Hardware Configuration DVD-ROM Connector: IDE1 The mainboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE and Ultra DMA 66/100 controller that provides PIO mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 66/100 functions. You can connect a DVD-ROM or other IDE devices. Figure B-23 shows the IDE1 connector. Figure B-23. IDE1 Connector SATA Connectors: SATA0–SATA3 The ICH7R south bridge supports four Serial ATA connectors (SATA0–SATA3). SATA connectors are high-speed Serial ATA interface ports.
Appendix B Hardware Configuration Hard Disk Installation Before removing or installing a hard disk drive, be sure the NI 8352/8353 is powered off and not connected to AC power. Caution Follow these steps to install a hard disk drive: 1. Press the release tab to release the SCA drive tray from its locking position. 2. Pull the SCA drive tray out from the chassis, as shown in Figure B-25. Figure B-25. Removing SCA Drive Tray 3. Remove the two screws that attach to the sides of the dummy tray.
Appendix B 4. Hardware Configuration Slide a hard disk drive into the SCA drive tray. Secure the drive to the tray with three screws on each side of the tray, as shown in Figure B-27. Figure B-27. Sliding Hard Disk Drive into SCA Drive Tray 5. Once the hard disk drive is securely installed in the SCA tray, you can reinstall the SCA drive tray in the chassis.

Intel SATA RAID Utility for Intel ICH7R C This appendix describes the Intel SATA RAID utility for Intel ICH7R. Intel RAID Configuration Utility The Intel RAID Configuration utility is an embedded BIOS utility for creating, managing, and deleting arrays from the controller BIOS and initializing drives. To run the Intel RAID Configuration utility, press when the following message appears during system startup: Press to enter Configuration Utility... The main menu appears.
Appendix C Intel SATA RAID Utility for Intel ICH7R 6. Use the up and down arrow keys to select the RAID0 array stripe size (4–128 KB). Press . For a server, use a lower stripe size. For a multimedia system, use a higher stripe size. The default size is 128 KB. Note 7. Press when Create Volume is highlighted. A warning message displays. 8. When asked Are you sure you want to create this volume (Y/N), press to create the RAID volume or to return to the Create Volume menu.
Appendix C Intel SATA RAID Utility for Intel ICH7R For a server, use a lower stripe size. For a multimedia system, use a higher stripe size. The default setting is 64 KB. Note 5. When Capacity is highlighted, enter your RAID volume capacity and press . The default setting is the maximum capacity allowed. 6. Press when Create Volume is highlighted. A warning message displays. 7.
Appendix C Intel SATA RAID Utility for Intel ICH7R Deleting a RAID Volume Caution Be sure to back up your data before deleting a RAID set. You will lose all data on the disk drives when deleting a RAID set. Follow these steps to delete a RAID volume: 1. From the main menu, select Delete RAID Volume and press . 2. Use the up and down arrow keys to select the RAID set to delete and press . A warning message displays. 3.
