How do I physically connect the SCXI 1180 when using a 1520 and 1346 adapter?

Here's my current configuration:
SCXI 1000 chassis
x2 SCXI 1520 Bridge Modules (Slot 1, and Slot 2)
1180 Feedthrough panel.
I recently purchased a 1346 adapter so I can use the feedthrough to access AI channels on the DAQ card.
My question is, how do I physically connect the ribbon cable of the 1180? Does it plug into the BACK of the last module in the chassis (ie. bridge module2 in slot 2) or does it plug into the other 49pin connector on the 1346 adapter?
If you read the installation manual for the 1180 http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371062a.pdf (Page 2-3)
And the installation manual for the 1346 http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/320722b.pdf (page 2)
it seems the instruction contradict eachother. The 1180 manual says connect it to the back of the module
the note under Fig.2 on page 2 of the 1346 says you cannot have anything plugged into the module next to the one that has the 1346 plugged into it; in my case that's module 2...
SCXI- 1000 Chassis w/ 1346 adapter
PCI 6281 DAQ card
SCXI- 1520 Bridge Board w/ 1314 Terminal Block (x2)
SCXI- 1180 Feedthrough Panel w/ 1302 Block

I have the 1346 plugged into the first module in slot 1.
But let me try and clairfy what you're saying...
"Then the cable from the 1346 kind of loops back into the chassis and through the 1180". So this is my answer? But I'm actually taking  the cable from the 1180 and plugging it into the other 49-pin connector on the 1346. Sorry, symantics...
"...it must be on the first card when using a 1520". By "it" are you referring to the 1346 (which is how it's currently configured) or the 1180 cable?
and lastly; why does the 1180 need to go into slot 2? I can currently fill both slots (1&2) with the 1520's and with the 1346 plugged into module1/slot1, I can pass the ribbon cable around back of module2 and into the 1346.
Is there some other reason beside potential space limitations that you'd use the feedthrough in slot2?
Thanks for your info and patience!

  • How to get rid of the "time out" when using DAQ AI in the example program

    I try an example file called "AcqVoltageSamples_IntClkDigRef" (Visual C++ .NET). It works great. However, if the program has not recieved the data, it sent out a timeout message. How to get rid of the "time out"? I cannot find anywhere in the code. Is this a property I have to reset somewhere else?
    Thank you,
    Yajai.

    Hello Yajai,
    The example program will use the default value for timeout, 10 seconds. To change this, you will have to set the Stream.Timeout value. I inserted this function into the example and set it equal to -1, and the program will wait indefinitely for the trigger signal without timing out. Please see the attached image to how this was implemented.
    I hope this help. Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Regards,
    Sean C.

  • SHOLD I USE ALL THE HANDSHKING SIGNALS WHEN USING VISA READ AND WRITE?

    I want to send string from com3 to com 4 using the example 'Basic 2 port serial write and read.vi'.How should I connect my com3 and com4 which are available on my pc.? Do I need to connect all the handshaking connections?

    In general, no.  There are some instruments that might require it, but between two COM ports on your computer you don't have to worry about it.  As said, just connect the TX of one port to the RX of the other and visa versa.  It also wouldn't hurt to connect the grounds.

    How do I get the photo tray option to come up in iphoto from my mac notebook when I have an HP C6280 all-in-one printer

    I have an HP all-in-one C5140.  When I print from iPhoto the dialog that comes up has a "Presets" drop down at the bottom.  One of the choices is "Print from Photo Tray."  Is that there on yours?  If not make sure you have the latest software from HP.

  • I installed on my computer the other SSD hard drive, and now'd like to install Photoshop and Lightroom that station and I do not the C drive. How do I get exchanged the installation location when using your Creative Cloud in your program.

    Photoshop is installed on your C partition and how to get it installed on another partition now!

    Heinonen Petri you can customize the installation location within the preferences for the Creative Cloud desktop application.  Please be aware that the Creative Cloud desktop application and many shared components will always need to be installed to the primary drive containing the operating system.
    For additional details on how to customize the installation location please see Creative Cloud Help | Download, install, update, or uninstall apps.

  • Do not use the Megaphone effect when using external amp and speakers

    Hi guys,
    I just wanted to let you know that I damaged my Yamaha NS10 speakers while I was testing the effect section on garageband with an external mic through my studio amp and the NS10 studio monitors. When I switched to the Megaphone effect to test it I received such a high frequency signal that it killed my NS10 tweeters. It is very frustrating and I had never really any issues in the past with my monitors.
    I am just posting this topic here to warn you guys, just in case you are trying the same thing. It cost me 250 dollar to replace the tweeters so you better test the effect section of garageband on a very low level or even use your old headphones before you plug your mac to an external amp and speaker set up.
    Good luck,
    Martin

    Sorry to hear about those blown tweeters.
    If it'll help, once you establish a microphone setup using the dropdowns in the lower right-hand corner of the browse window, there are three monitor options: Off, On, & On (no feedback protection).
    Knowing this, the latter may have been the unbeknownst destructive culprit.

  • I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive?

    I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • I had my iphone 4 locked to vodafone uk carrier. I connected the phone to itunes on my pc and tried to update the version to ios 6 through itunes. But it has been locked and asks for sim of previous carrier. how can i return to previous state?

    I had my iphone 4 locked to vodafone uk carrier. I connected the phone to itunes on my pc and tried to update the version to ios 6 through itunes. But it has been locked and asks for sim of previous carrier. how can i return to previous state?

    You cannot return to previous state. The update re-locked the iPhone
    to the original carrier. You must contact the original carrier to see if
    they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Be advised that if your iPhone had previously been hacked/modified/
    jailbroken to work with other than original carrier, it may be impossible
    for the original carrier to unlock it properly.

  • How do you physically secure the new Mac Pro's?

    I am looking to buy the new Mac Pro, and went to see one in the apple store today, I asked the shop assistant how I would physically lock the Mac Pro to something too keep it safe and secure in an office environment and he said he didn't know how you would. It doesn't seem to have a laptop style hole to use a cable lock or anything like that. They are incredibly small and easy to pick up and pop in a bag...
    So has anyone come across anything like this to answer my question?

    This discussion doesn't seem to be a reasonable solution.

    I am not a DIYer especially not when it comes to locking something as valuable as a Mac Pro.
    My go to compnay for locking mac stuff is maclocks and they just announced this http://www.maclocks.com/mac-cable-locks/mac-pro-lock-bracket-with-security-cable -lock-fits-new-mac-pro.html
    Don't know if you already built the solution for yours but this is looking to be a great one.
    I have dealt with maclock on a few occassions because I bought their macbook pro bracket lock and couldn't be happier.

    Can anyone help me connect my Macbook Air to a SAMSUNG TV.  When I follow the basic instructions (Thunderbolt to HDMI connection) the screen on my computer goes grey and an error message appears inviting me to press any button to restart the Macbook.  When I do this nothing happens.  Only when I disconnect the computer from the TV does the Macbook allow me to login. The TV does not receive any signal from the Macbook even though I know the HDI port works fine.  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?  Do I need to enable something on the Macbook?

    An update...
    I downloaded Apple's (rather large!) list of software updates today, and I was finally able to recognize my iPod again. I did a restore using the iPod updater from 06-2006, and all seemed to work OK. (I'm afraid to try the new one again!)
    Then I tried to re-load my music library from iTunes, and got stuck. It froze up after a while and wouldn't go any further.
    When I disconnected my iPod from my computer, I find 2 podcasts and nothing else, though iTunes told me it had transferred 600+ songs. Those 2 podcasts do play fine, and the basic iPod software all seems to be intact.
    So -- anyone get through this connection problem and have any ideas to share??
