Introduction and Quick Start
This chapter describes the VXI/VME-PCI8022 interface kits, lists what
you need to get started, introduces the concepts of MXI-2, and includes
a brief description of the hardware and software.
This chapter also contains a Quick Start section, which has the basic
information you need to install the VXI/VME-PCI8022 interface kit
with a simple configuration, along with a Default Settings section,
which lists the hardware and software default settings for easy
reference. You may find that these sections contain as much
information as you need to get started with your VXI/VME-PCI8022
interface kit.
This manual uses the term VXI/VME-PCI8022 when information
applies to either the VXI-PCI8022 kit, which contains a VXI-MXI-2
module, or the VME-PCI8022 kit, which contains a VME-MXI-2
module. Similarly, the term VXI/VME-MXI-2 means that information
applies to either the VXI-MXI-2 or the VME-MXI-2.
The following flowchart shows where to turn in this manual for more
details on configuring and using the hardware and software.
