National Instruments PXIe-8379 MXI Controller
The PXIe-8379 (Part Numbers: 782991-01) is a MXI Controller that allows for PXI chassis control from a PC, laptop, desktop, or rackmount control system. This device creates a multichassis PXI system for optimal data connection and synchronization. The controller allows for up to 13.7 GB/s of data throughput and has multiple copper (up to 10 m) and fiber-optic cable (up to 200 m) options. The PXIe-8379 does not require programming to facilitate the software-transparent link.
The MXI Controller offers remote control solutions with the performance and advantages of the PXI platform. Additionally, it permits effective chassis control through desktop PCs, rackmount controllers, laptops, or other PXI systems. Using MXIExpress technology, PXI Remote Control Modules create a simple and transparent connection between a host and a PXI chassis/instruments. The PXIe-8379 provides several remote-control options that are suitable for applications requiring high-speed data throughput, long-distance cabling, and host form factors. MXI-Express configuration allows for data streaming and communication between multiple PXI chassis. Multichassis systems support multiple topologies, such as daisy-chain or star. Additionally, the MXI Controller multichassis configurations allow for the management of multiple PXI chassis management via a singular controller. Along with a master controller and chassis, the PXI configuration posses a high-throughput data movement and makes use of a PCI express bus interface and sub-nanosecond synchronization with integrated timing and triggering.
The PXIe-8379 can leverage multiple features; for example, synchronization and streaming between chassis-separated instruments in a peer-to-peer manner. The configuration may be used with a desktop or laptop.
To ensure the compatibility of the remote-control solution and ability to meet the application needs, consider several options for a remote-control module and the host interface component. There are three viable remote-control options: cabling, data throughput, and PC compatibility. The MXI Controller controls PXI and PXI Express systems using a PC or laptop computer via a software transparent link.
