The Resource Manager

The Resource Manager is a program from the hardware interface manufacturer. It looks at the VXI mainframe to determine what modules are installed. It is necessary to run it every time the mainframe is powered up. If the “No VT1433B can be found in this system” is found, then run the Resource Manager.

Before running the VT1432A/33B software make sure that the hardware is configured correctly and that the Resource Manager runs successfully. Before using the measurement system, all of its devices must be set up, including setting their addresses and local bus locations. No two devices can have the same address. Usually addresses 0 and 1 are taken by the Resource Manager and are not available.

For more information about the Resource Manager, see the hardware interface’s documentation.
