Configuration and Installation Chapter 3
VXI-MXI User Manual 3-22 © National Instruments Corporation
The VXI-MXI must be installed in Slot 0 if you want to route the INTX CLK10 signal to the
VXIbus CLK10 signal. The CLK10 Source Select jumpers on the VXI-MXI must be set to
configure the VXI-MXI to receive the CLK10 because the INTX daughter card will now be
sourcing the clock signal. You can configure the VXI-MXI to be installed in any slot when the
INTX CLK10 Routing switches are enabled to map the VXIbus CLK10 signal to the INTX
connector.
Warning: Configuring more than one VXIbus device to drive the CLK10 lines or
configuring both the VXI-MXI and the INTX daughter card to drive CLK10
can damage the VXIbus backplane, the CLK10 drivers on the VXIbus devices,
or both.
