The NI PXI-1006 offers three PXI segments with the vertical bars representing segment divisions on the Chassis’ front panel. The PXI trigger bus is also divided into three different and separate trigger buses. In this arrangement, users can utilize the trigger line in various ways. As an example, consider the synchronized operation of multiple PXI peripheral modules. The device has a recommended operating temperature range of 0 to 50 °C, and a recommended storage temperature range of -20 to 70 °C.

The PXI-1006 Chassis has 18 PXI slots, and offers a local bus connection with a couple of exemptions: slot 1 and slot 2. These two slots are not connected through local bus connections as it is restricted in the PXI specifications.  Slot 1 of this Chassis is known as the system controller slot. The device weighs 29.2 lbs, has an AC input voltage range of 90 to 264 VAC, has an AC input range of 47 to 63 Hz, and is equipped with a 10 A circuit breaker to serve as a protection for unexpected current surges.
