PXI Express System Controller Slot

The System Controller slot is Slot 1 of the chassis as defined by the PXI specification. The PXES-2590 chassis can accommodate a PXI Express system controller that occupies width up to 4 slots. As defined in the PXI specification, three controller expansion slots allow the controller to expand to the left to pre-

vent the controller from using up peripheral slots.

PXI Express System Timing Slot

The System Timing (ST) slot is Slot 5, providing one dedicated single-ended star trigger and 3 pairs of differential star trigger lines to each peripheral slot. Routing of single ended star trigger signals (PXI_STAR) is as follows

Figure 1-10: Single-ended Star Trigger Routing

Routing of differential star trigger signals (PXIe_DSTAR) is as follows.

Introduction 13

Page 24

Figure 1-11: Differential Star Trigger Routing

Star trigger functionality provides a precise trigger signal to the peripheral modules by installation of a specific star trigger controller module in the ST slot. The star trigger slot can also be used as a general PXI Express peripheral slot if star trigger functionality is not required.

PXI Express Hybrid Slots

7 peripheral slots are provided in the PXES-2590, all of which are PXI Express hybrid slots. Each can accommodate a 3U PXI Express/CompactPCI Express/ hybrid slot compatible PXI1/CompactPCI peripheral module.

Local Bus

The local bus on a PXI backplane is a daisy-chained bus that connects each peripheral slot with adjacent peripheral slots to the left and right. The quantity of local bus lines is decreased from thirteen to one on a PXI Express backplane. The remain-

Introduction 15

Page 26

ing local bus line can transmit analog or digital signals between modules.

Trigger Bus

The trigger bus is an 8-line bus that connects all slots on the PXES-2590, providing inter-module synchronization. PXI and PXI Express modules can exchange trigger or clock signals through the trigger bus, allowing precisely timed response to asynchronous external events the system is monitoring or controlling.

Reference Clock

The PXES-2590 backplane supplies single-ended 10MHz reference clock (PXI_CLK10) and differential 100MHz clock (PXIe_CLK100) to each peripheral slot for inter-module synchronization. The independent buffers drive the clock signal to each peripheral slot.

These common reference clock signals can synchronize multiple modules in a PXI Express chassis. PXI modules with phase-lock loop circuits can lock reference clocks to generate an in-phase timebase.

The PXI_CLK10 and PXIe_CLK100 clocks are in-phase according to the PXI-5 specification. Since the external 10MHz clock input can override the onboard 10MHz clock source, a phase-lock loop (PLL) circuit on the backplane synchronizes the PXIe_CLK100 and external 10MHz clock. Three LED indicators on the left side of the system controller slot indicate status as follows.

2.2 Cooling Considerations

The PXES-2590 features an innovative design for heat dissipation, with cooling fans in the rear section of the chassis, drawing cool air through apertures on the bottom for exhaust through the back. This design provides uniform airflow for each PXI slot and exceptional cooling capability. When the chassis is installed in a rack, the cooling design minimizes drawing of hot air from the rear area, where other devices exhaust, while maintaining a steady temperature inside the chassis. For optimal cooling efficiency, retain support feet.

When rack mounting the PXES-2590, at least 1U (44.5 mm/1.75 in.) clearance below the intake apertures is required. Also keep other objects or equipment at a minimum of 76.2 mm (3 in.) away from the outlet apertures in the rear region of the chassis.

To maintain expected air flow, always install filler panels in unused slots. The filler panels can be found in the chassis

Appendix B - Troubleshooting and Mainte-

nance

This Appendix describes basic troubleshooting techniques, as well as instructions for the maintenance of the PXES-2590 chassis.

B.1 Installation Problems

Inability to start the system frequently results from incorrect installation of the system controller, peripheral modules, and other components. Before starting the system, please ensure that:

X The system controller is properly installed and secured

X All peripheral modules are properly seated on the slots

X All cables are properly connected to the system controller

and peripheral modules

X All installed peripheral modules are compatible for use in

the chassis

X The power cord is securely plugged into the chassis power

connector and power outlet/wall socket/power strip

If the system fails to start when all installation conditions are met, remove all installed peripheral modules and try again. If the system starts normally, instal one peripheral module at a time followed by powering up. You may also try installing the modules into different slots until the desired result is obtained

B.3 Maintenance

B.3.1 Handling the Chassis

The PXES-2590 is designed for both rack-mount and benchtop use. When transporting or carrying the chassis, it is recommended that the handle be used, being designed to support the weight of the chassis for superior portability and balance.

The PXES-2590 weights 8.8 kg. Please be careful when moving the chassis to avoid any possible injury.

B.3.2 Cleaning the Exterior

Make sure that the system is turned off before cleaning the chassis exterior. Wipe the exterior with a clean cloth starting from areas that easily accumulate dust or dirt such as the area in and around the chassis and power supply air intake apertures.

B.3.3 Power Requirements

Make sure that the power cord is in good condition before plugging it into the system. It is important to check the reliability of the power source. The PXES-2590 power supply is capable of handling 100 to 240 V AC within the 50 Hz to 60 Hz range. Do not connect the PXES-2590 to an already overloaded circuit.
