PXI-1000 Backplane Overview  
Interoperability with CompactPCI  
The PXI-1000 backplane is interoperable with PXI-compatible products  
and standard CompactPCI products. This is an important feature, as many  
PXI-compatible systems may not 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 only found on the  
signals that are reserved or not used in the CompactPCI 64-bit  
specification. Therefore, all modules that meet the requirements of the  
CompactPCI 64-bit specification will function in the PXI-1000.  
Figures 1-1 and 1-2 show some of the key features and components of the  
PXI-1000 mainframe. Figure 1-1 shows the front view of the PXI-1000 and  
Figure 1-2 shows the rear view.

System Controller Slot  
The System Controller slot is located in 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 located at Slot 2. This slot has a dedicated  
trigger line between each peripheral slot (see Figure 1-3). This slot is  
intended for modules with ST functionality that can provide individual  
triggers to all other peripherals. However, if you do not require advanced  
trigger functionality, you can install any standard peripheral module into  
this slot.  
Peripheral Slots  
There are seven peripheral slots including the Star Trigger controller slot.

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 1-3.  
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.  
Local Bus signals may range from high-speed TTL signals to analog  
signals as high as 42 V. Initialization software keys adjacent boards to  
prohibit the use of incompatible boards. This software uses the  
configuration information specific to each peripheral board to evaluate  
compatibility. This method is a flexible way to define local bus  
functionality that is not limited by hardware keying.

Trigger Bus  
The eight PXI trigger lines are bused to each slot. 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-1000 supplies the PXI 10 MHz system clock signal (PXI_CLK10)  
independently to each 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, in Appendix B, Pinouts.) Sourcing an external clock on  
this pin automatically disables the backplane’s 10 MHz source.

This chapter describes how to prepare and operate your PXI-1000  
mainframe.  
Before connecting the mainframe to a power source, read this chapter and  
the For Your Safety section located at the beginning of this manual.  
Site Considerations  
The PXI-1000 is designed to operate on a bench or in an instrument rack.  
Determine how you want to use your PXI-1000 and follow the appropriate  
installation instructions.  
Apertures in the rear and along both sides of the mainframe facilitate power  
supply and module cooling. Air enters through filters and fan inlets located  
in the lower rear of the mainframe and exits through the upper sections on  
both sides and through the rear, as shown in Figure 2-1. Place your  
PXI-1000 on a bench top or in an instrument rack so that the fans (air inlets)  
and the air outlet apertures along both sides of the mainframe have adequate  
ventilation. Keep other equipment a minimum of 3.0 in. (76.2 mm) away  
from the air inlets and outlets.

Installation and Configuration  
Connecting Safety Ground  
Warning The PXI-1000 chassis is designed with a three-position NEMA 15-5 style plug that  
connects the ground line to the chassis ground. To minimize shock hazard, make  
sure your electrical power outlet has an appropriate earth safety ground that is  
connected whenever you power up the chassis.  
If your power outlet does not have an appropriate ground connection, you  
must connect the premise wire safety ground to the chassis grounding  
screw located on the rear panel. Refer to Figure 1-2, Rear View of the  
PXI-1000 Mainframe, for a diagram of the chassis grounding screw. To  
connect the safety ground, complete the following steps:  
1. Connect a 16 AWG (1.3 mm) wire to the chassis grounding screw  
using a toothed grounding lug. The wire must have green insulation  
with a yellow stripe or must be non-insulated (bare).  
2. Attach the opposite end of the wire to permanent earth ground using  
toothed washers or a toothed lug.  
Connecting to AC Mains Power and Testing Power up  
Caution  
Make sure the main power switch located on the rear panel of the PXI-1000 is in  
the Off position (0). Refer to Figure 1-2, Rear View of the PXI-1000 Mainframe, for  
a diagram of the main power switch.  
!
Do not install modules prior to performing the first power-on test.  
The power supply is universal, which means the mainframe can connect to  
all standard worldwide input voltages. Refer to Chapter 1, Getting Started,  
for power cord specifications. Attach input power through the rear AC inlet  
using the appropriate line cord supplied. Refer to Figure 1-2, Rear View of  
the PXI-1000 Mainframe, for a diagram of the IEC 320 inlet.  
Push the main power switch to the On (1) position. Then push the remote  
power switch to the On position (if not already on). Observe that all fans  
become operational. Note that the main power switch (rear panel) enables  
the power module to receive AC power. The remote front panel standby  
switch allows the power module to provide power to the PXI backplane  
(if the rear main power switch is on). For this reason, you can leave the  
main power switch on and use the remote On/Off (Standby) switch on the  
front to power up and power down the backplane.

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 both the rear main power switch and  
the front (standby) switch are in the ON position. As long as Inhibit is  
pulled down, the power supply inhibits its DC outputs. DC output resumes  
when Inhibit is no longer connected to ground. 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).

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-1000 chassis initialization file, chassis.ini, is included on  
the diskette for your PXI-1000.

Maintenance  
Interior Cleaning  
Exterior Cleaning  
Use a dry, low-velocity stream of air to clean the interior of the mainframe.  
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.  
Clean the exterior surfaces of the mainframe 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  
with clear water. Do not use abrasive compounds on any part of the  
mainframe.  
Cautions Avoid getting moisture inside the mainframe during exterior cleaning. Use just  
!
enough moisture to dampen the cloth.  
Do not wash the front- or rear-panel connectors or switches. Cover these  
components while cleaning the mainframe.  
Do not use chemical cleaning agents; they may damage the mainframe. Avoid  
chemicals that contain benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar solvents.  
Cleaning the Fan Filters  
You can easily remove the mainframe cooling filters from the rear of the  
mainframe by removing the plastic housing attached to each fan.  
Clean the fan filters by washing them in a mild soap solution and then  
vacuuming or blowing air through them. Rinse the filters with water and  
allow them to dry before reinstalling them on the mainframe.
