Description
The National Instruments PXIe-8360 is a PXI Remote Control Module that falls under the category of PXI Remote Controllers. This module is part of the MXI-Express x1 series and utilizes an MXI-Express interface for its operations. It is specifically designed for the control of PXI and CompactPCI systems via PC, making it a versatile tool for a wide array of applications.
The PXIe-8360 supports various part numbers including 194402C-11, 779700-01, and 194402F-01, ensuring flexibility and compatibility with different setups. It is compatible with PXI platform Services Software and Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), which are essential for seamless integration and operation within PXI systems.
This module is equipped with LED indicators to display the power supply status and link state, providing immediate visual feedback on the operational state of the module. It is designed to be used with the PCIe 8362 board and another PXIe 8360 module for controlling two PXI Express systems simultaneously, although daisy-chaining is not supported. This limitation ensures stable and reliable control over the systems without the complications that can arise from daisy-chained configurations.
For physical connectivity, the PXIe-8360 uses a PXIe Controller bus connector and supports MXI-Express x1 copper cables. This module is compatible with cable lengths of 1, 3, or 7 meters, offering flexibility in system setup and configuration. The maximum MXI bandwidth supported by this module is 250 MB/s, ensuring fast and efficient data transfers within the system.
