Compliance
FCC/Canada Radio Frequency Interference Compliance*
Determining FCC Class
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has rules to protect wireless communications from interference. The FCC
places digital electronics into two classes. These classes are known as Class A (for use in industrial-commercial locations only)
or Class B (for use in residential or commercial locations). Depending on where it is operated, this product could be subject to
restrictions in the FCC rules. (In Canada, the Department of Communications (DOC), of Industry Canada, regulates wireless
interference in much the same way.)
Digital electronics emit weak signals during normal operation that can affect radio, television, or other wireless products. By
examining the product you purchased, you can determine the FCC Class and therefore which of the two FCC/DOC Warnings
apply in the following sections. (Some products may not be labeled at all for FCC; if so, the reader should then assume these are
Class A devices.)
FCC Class A products only display a simple warning statement of one paragraph in length regarding interference and undesired
operation. Most of our products are FCC Class A. The FCC rules have restrictions regarding the locations where FCC Class A
products can be operated.
FCC Class B products display either a FCC ID code, starting with the letters EXN,
or the FCC Class B compliance mark that appears as shown here on the right.
FCC/DOC Warnings
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in strict accordance with the instructions
in this manual and the CE Mark Declaration of Conformity**, may cause interference to radio and television reception.

PXI-1006 Features
PXI-1006 Backplane Overview
Interoperability with CompactPCI
The PXI-1006 backplane is interoperable with PXI-compatible products
and standard CompactPCI products. This is an important feature, as many
PXI-compatible systems may require components that do not implement
PXI-specific features. For example, you may want to use a standard
CompactPCI network interface card in a PXI chassis.
The signals on the P1 connector of the backplane meet the requirements of
the CompactPCI specification for both the peripheral and system modules.
The PXI-specific signals are located on P2 and are found on only the
specification. Therefore, all modules that meet the requirements of the
CompactPCI 64-bit specification will function in the PXI-1006.

PXI-1006 Features
System Controller Slot
The System Controller slot is Slot 1 of the chassis as defined by the PXI
specification. It has three controller expansion slots, which are used for
system controller modules that are wider than one slot. As defined in the
PXI specification, these slots allow the controller to expand to the left to
prevent the controller from using up peripheral slots.
Star Trigger Slot
The Star Trigger (ST) slot is Slot 2. This slot has a dedicated trigger line
between itself and slots 3-15. Slots 16-18 do not use the Star Trigger
functionality because there are 13 Star Trigger lines, as specified in the PXI
specification (see Figure 2-3). This slot is intended for modules with ST
functionality that can provide individual triggers to the peripherals installed
in slots 3-15. However, if you do not require advanced trigger functionality,
you can install any standard peripheral module into this slot.
Peripheral Slots
Local Bus
The PXI backplane’s local bus is a daisy-chained bus that connects each
peripheral slot with its adjacent peripheral slots to the left and right, as
shown in Figure 2-3.
For example, a given peripheral slot’s right local bus connects to the
adjacent slot’s left local bus, and so on. Each local bus is 13 lines wide and
can pass analog signals between cards or provide a high-speed side-band
communication path that does not affect the PXI bandwidth.
The PXI-1006 has local bus connections between all slots except slots 1
and 2, in accordance with the PXI specification. See Figure 2-3 for details.

Chapter 2
PXI-1006 Features
Trigger Bus
The PXI-1006 has three PXI segments. Vertical bars represent the segment
divisions on the front of the chassis. (See Figure 2-1 for the segment divider
locations.) The PXI trigger bus is divided into three separate trigger buses
at these locations. You can use the trigger lines in a variety of ways. For
example, you can use triggers to synchronize the operation of several
different PXI peripheral modules. In other applications, one module can
control carefully timed sequences of operations performed on other
modules in the system. Modules can pass triggers to one another, allowing
precisely timed responses to asynchronous external events the system is
monitoring or controlling.
System Reference Clock
The PXI-1006 supplies the PXI 10 MHz system clock signal (PXI_CLK10)
independently to every peripheral slot. An independent buffer (having a
source impedance matched to the backplane and a skew of less than 1 ns
between slots) drives the clock signal to each peripheral slot. You can use
this common reference clock signal to synchronize multiple modules in a
measurement or control system. You can drive PXI_CLK10 from an
external source through the PXI_CLK10_IN pin on the P2 connector of the
star trigger slot. (See Table B-1, P1 (J1) Connector Pinout for the System
Controller Slot.) Sourcing an external clock on this pin automatically
disables the backplane’s 10 MHz source.
Rack Mounting
Rack-mount applications require the optional rack-mount kit available
from National Instruments. Refer to the instructions supplied with the
rack-mount kit to install your PXI-1006 in a standard 19 in. instrument
rack.

Using the Inhibiting Feature
You can use the Inhibit signal (active low) to turn off the power supply
outputs. To use this feature, connect the Inhibit pin (pin 5) to a Logic
Ground pin (pin 1 or 9). Make sure the front (standby) switch is in the ON
position. As long as the connection is made, the power supply inhibits its
DC outputs. DC output resumes when Inhibit is no longer connected. Note
that the power (standby) switch, located on the front of the chassis, uses this
inhibiting feature. For remote reset, connect a momentary switch between
pin 5 and pin 1 (or pin 9).

Installing Filler Panels
To optimize module cooling performance, install filler panels into unused
or empty slots. Secure with the captive mounting screws.
Using the Chassis Initialization File
To assist system integrators, the PXI specification requires manufacturers
of PXI chassis and system modules to document the capabilities of their
products. The minimum documentation requirements are contained
in .ini files, which consist of ASCII text. The system integrator can
read the .ini file, and configuration utilities and device drivers can also
use this file. The PXI-1006 chassis initialization file, chassis.ini,
is included on the diskette for your PXI-1006.
Cleaning
Cleaning procedures consist of exterior and interior cleaning of the chassis
and cleaning the fan filters. Refer to your module user documentation for
information on cleaning the individual CompactPCI or PXI modules.
Caution Always power-off the chassis and disconnect the power cord before cleaning or
servicing the chassis.
Mise en garde Veillez à éteindre le châssis et déconnecter le cordon d’alimentation avant
de nettoyer ou d’intervenir sur le châssis.
Interior Cleaning
Use a dry, low-velocity stream of air to clean the interior of the chassis. Use
a soft-bristle brush for cleaning around components. If you must use a
liquid for minor interior cleaning, use a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution and
rinse with deionized water.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior surfaces of the chassis with a dry lint-free cloth or a
soft-bristle brush. If any dirt remains, wipe with a cloth moistened in a mild
soap solution. Remove any soap residue by wiping with a cloth moistened

to prevent damage to the chassis. Complete the following steps to reset the
circuit breaker:
1. Turn the power switch to the Standby position.
2. Disconnect the AC line cord.

3. Depress the circuit breaker to reset it.
4. Reconnect the AC line cord.
5. Turn the power switch to the On position.
1. Turn the front panel power switch to the Standby position.
2. Disconnect the chassis from the AC mains power source.
3. Remove all modules from the chassis.
4. Complete the test procedure described in the Using the Power
Monitoring Feature section in Chapter 2, PXI-1006 Features.
5. If any voltages are outside the acceptable limits, contact National
Instruments.
6. If all voltages are within the acceptable limits, verify that your
PXI-1006 can meet the power requirements of your CompactPCI or
PXI modules. Overloading the chassis can cause the breaker to trip.
Refer to Appendix A, Specifications.
7. The over-current condition that caused the circuit breaker to trip
may be due to a faulty CompactPCI or PXI module. Refer to the
documentation supplied with the modules for troubleshooting your
modules.
