National Instruments PXIe-8301 PXI Remote Control Module
The PXIe-8301 from National Instruments (Part Numbers: 785679-01, 140652E-01L, 140652D-01L ) is a PXI Remote Control Module that empowers laptop control of a PXIe chassis over a Thunderbolt™ 3 association. Utilizing a Gen 3 x4 PCI Express connection, the NI PXIe-8301 permits up to 2.3 GB/s of throughput between the chassis and laptop over to Thunderbolt 3 USB Type-C link. An extra Thunderbolt 3 port takes into account interfacing extra Thunderbolt or USB-C gadgets.
The PXIe-8301 Remote Control Module works well with host PCs that contain a Thunderbolt 3 port and are running a local (non-virtualized) operating framework that supports Thunderbolt availability. Note that while a working framework may support a Thunderbolt association, it might lack support for other NI equipment and programming.
NI suggests interfacing the PXIe-8301 to a Thunderbolt 3 port on the host PC by utilizing a Thunderbolt 3 link. Since Thunderbolt 3 is reverse compatible with past Thunderbolt generations, it might be possible to use adapters to set up associations with host PCs or gadgets with previous generation Thunderbolt ports. Data throughput execution may shift between Thunderbolt generations. The module can be run using the PXI platform services software, and configured with the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool.
The user can daisy-chain from a PXI Express chassis controlled by a laptop to an extra Thunderbolt 3 compatible gadget utilizing MXI-Express Thunderbolt items. This model allows the user to create synchronized and data-connected PXI frameworks, and it boasts copper cable options as well as a software-transparent link.
The PXIe-8301 weighs 0.35 lb, and measures 4.4 x 6.9 in. in physical dimensions. It has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of 0 °C to 55 °C and -40 °C to 71 °C respectively, non-condensing operating and storage humidity ranges of 10% to 90% RH and 5% to 95% RH, operating and non-operating random vibrations of 0.3 grms and 2.4 grms respectively–all at a frequency range of 5 to 500 Hz. The NI device is designed to comply with the following electrical safety standards: IEC 61010-1, EN 61010-1, UL 61010-1, and CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1.
