Chapter 2 Setup
© National Instruments Corporation 2-5 Getting Started with Your VXIpc-850
Type:
ROOT>>vxiinreg 0,0
This should return a value, such as:
Return Status (0): SUCCESS.
value = 0x9ff6
If the value ends with ff6, you have successfully read the National
Instruments manufacturer ID from the ID register for the VXIpc-850.
You may now want to read the configuration registers from other VXI
devices in your system using the command vxiinreg. This command
accesses only the upper 16 KB of A16 space. Try reading the registers
from one of the devices listed in the Resource Manager Display of
either VXIedit or VXItedit. In this way, you can verify that your
VXIpc-850 can access each of the devices in your VXI system
successfully. You can also access VXI and VME devices that are
configured in A16, A24, and A32 address space by using the vxiin
or vxiout commands.
