National Instruments PXI-8368 PXI Remote Control Module
The NI PXI-8368 (Part Number: 789394-01, 157298A-02L) Remote Control Module has a vertical section of 2 LEDs on the back of the card close to the front connector. These LEDs give extra data about the link status of the PCI Express lines in the module to the backplane. Each group of four LEDs relates to one of the four PCI Express links to the backplane.
Since working frameworks and drivers normally make the presumption that the PXI-8368 module will be available in the framework from power-up to power-down, it is essential not to power-off the expansion chassis until after the host PC is powered off. Powering off the extension case while the host is still on can cause crashes. Notwithstanding, once the host PC is powered off, the order that the extension suspension is powered off is not critical.
In general, the MXI-Express Remote Control Modules have either copper cabling, fiber-optic cabling, or both. However, the PXI-8368 only supports fiber-optic links. Copper links are often shorter (1 to 10 meters), while fiber-optic links are accessible in longer choices (up to 100 meters).
The power requirements of the module differ depending on the power rail. For a rail of +3.3 V, the typical current is 775 mA. While rails of +5 V, +12 V, -12 V have typical currents of 5 mA, 200 mA, and 0 A respectively. Designed for indoor use only, the environmental specifications of the PXI-8368 include an operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and a storage temperature range spanning from -40 to 70 °C. These temperature ranges are tested in accordance with the specification standards of IEC 60068-2-1 and IEC 60068-2-2.
The PXI-8368 is no longer available with National Instruments, but the Remote Control Module will remain Available in Perpetuity with Apex Waves for both purchase and repairs.
