Seven. Installation and Maintenance Instructions

Installation and Power On

Installation: Insert the PXI chassis 3U slot in the power-off state, ensure the chassis is reliably grounded to avoid static damage.

Power On: Connect the chassis power supply, NI-DAQmx automatically self-checks, no preheating required, after the self-check passes, it can be used.

Environment: Working temperature 0～55℃, keep the chassis ventilation ducts unobstructed, avoid over-temperature reduction; away from strong electromagnetic interference sources (such as motors, frequency converters).

Connection and Operation

Connection: Avoid frequent plugging and unplugging of 68-pin interface, recommend using the CB-68 wiring box for intermediate transfer; input signal voltage **≤5 V**,严禁 overvoltage； use shielded twisted pair for long-distance transmission， single-ended grounding of the shield layer.

Configuration： Configure channel direction (input/output)， power-on state， filtering time through NI-DAQmx； in high-speed mode， preferentially use DMA handshake transmission to reduce CPU usage.

Protection： Avoid short-circuit of output channels， when driving inductive loads (such as relays， motors)， need to parallel a shunt diode.

Daily Maintenance

Interface： Regularly clean the 68-pin interface to avoid dust and oxidation causing poor contact； install a dust cover when the device is idle for a long time.

Software： Regularly update the NI-DAQmx driver to fix bugs and improve compatibility.

Calibration： No need for regular calibration， photoelectric isolation and digital circuits are stable for a long time； check the connection terminal tightness once a year to avoid loosening.
