1 / 3 page ![]() Overview The National Instruments PXI-PCI833x interface kits give PCs direct control of PXI systems using MXI-4 technology. You can also use NI PXI-8331 and NI PXI-8336 modules for linking multiple PXI chassis. MXI-4 is a high-bandwidth link that is transparent to software applications and drivers, therefore providing the ability to use high performance desktop computers or servers to control PXI systems. Hardware PC Control of PXI With a MXI-4 link, you can transparently control a PXI system from any PCI slot, so high-performance desktop computers or servers can control PXI systems. Because PXI is based on the industry-standard PCI bus, MXI-4 provides a transparent link where all PXI modules appear to the user as if they were PCI boards within the computer itself. However, you benefit from the increased number of slots, power and cooling per slot, module selection, and synchronization features provided by PXI. Additionally, with fiber-optic MXI-4 you can electrically isolate your PXI measurement hardware from the PC with extended length cabling up to 200 m. The MXI-4 link consists of a PCI-8331 (copper) or PCI-8336 (fiber-optic) board in the PC, connected via the appropriate cable to a PXI-8331 (copper) or PXI-8336 (fiber-optic) module in slot 1 of a PXI chassis. For convenience, you can purchase either a complete MXI-4 kit with all necessary components, or purchase the PCI board, PXI module, and cable separately. Multichassis PXI Systems MXI-4 can be used to connect multiple PXI chassis in a star or daisy-chain configuration within a single system. To connect two PXI chassis together with MXI-4, install a PXI-8331 (copper) or PXI-8336 (fiber-optic) module into any peripheral slot of the master chassis. Connect with the appropriate cable to a second PXI-8331 or PXI-8336 in slot 1 of the slave chassis. For more information on the possible star and daisy-chain topologies, please see the MXI-4 User Manual. MXI-4 Technology MXI-4 operates as a PCI-to-PCI bridge that achieves software and hardware transparency and high performance. MXI-4 builds on the standard PCI-to-PCI bridge architecture by splitting the bridge into two halves connected by a 1.5 Gb/s serial link. Additionally, you can create multiple-chassis PXI systems using multiple MXI-4 links. The PCI specification allows up to 255 buses to be connected in a system via PCI-PCI bridges such as MXI-4. MXI-4 is an evolution of MXI-3. MXI-4 improves on MXI-3 by supporting both 3.3 V and 5 V PCI signaling environments, error checking and retransmission on the serial link for greater reliability in electrically noisy or harsh environments, and industrially rugged connectors.
