Description
The PCIe-8381 is a part of the PXI Remote Controllers category, bearing the part number 153094A-01, with an alternate part number of 782361-01. This model is designed with a unique built-in feature that forces the controlling frame on or off whenever the host framework is powered on or off, ensuring seamless operation and integration within a system.
Moreover, the PCIe-8381 is equipped with 6 LEDs on its back panel. These LEDs serve as connection status indicators for the PCI Express paths, providing a quick and easy way to monitor the connectivity and functionality of the device. Additionally, it features dedicated Backplane Link Status LEDs, which report the status of PCIe links between the PCIe-8381 and the PCIe switches on the chassis backplane, offering further insights into the operational status of the device.
Another noteworthy aspect of the PCIe-8381 is its SMBus Controller Link Status LED. This LED indicates the connection status of the PCIe switch to the onboard PCIe-to-PCI bridge for the SMBus controller. It is designed to blink green with a 25% duty cycle during normal operation, providing a visual cue for the device’s functionality and ensuring everything is running smoothly.
