Hello fellow LabVIEWers, I am trying to get a self developed PXI chassis up and running - with some problems. As this is this my first time developing a chassis, some general questions about 3rd party chassis: If I want to get a 3rd party PXI chassis up and running with MAX I just need to add the right description files into the right folder? otherwise the chassis will be recognized as "undefined"? but will still work - except triggers? Whats my status right now? Chassis is connected via PCIe 8361 - PXIe 8360 and the Connection seems to work Chassis seems to work and inserted cards get recognized by MAX and "self test" works Chassis seems to get recognized with the Keysight Resource Manager (I installed it and selected it in NI MAX) no unknown devices in windows device manager (so the NI SMBus Controller gets recognized correctly) btw my actual SW installation: PXI Services 17.5.1 MAX 17.5 VISA 17.5 DAQ 17.5 LV 17f2 I am open for any suggestions and tipps! br SayMaster

Hi! I've got a new PC with Win7 and a PXI-Chassis (connected through MXI) with a PXI8231 Ethernet card inside. Everything seems to be correctly installed (no yellow signs in the hardwaremanager) the ethernet card appears in the Network Connections, has a static IP, notices if there is a cable pluggen in, but has no communication (0 packets send, 0 packets received). the card is 'supported' out of the box from Win7, so there are no drivers from NI or Intel. With WinXP everything worked fine. I've already changed the card, but still have the same issue... I tried several days to get it running, without success... has anyone a similar environment, or a working PXI8231 on Win7? maybe someone of you has an idea what I could even try to get it running? thanks fabian
