PXI-1033 power up causes PC to boot up

 I have a PXI-1033 chassis connected to a Windows 7 PC via MXI-Express cable. Both the PC and PXI chassis are off. When I push the power button on the PXI chassis, the PC turns on. I cannot figure out the cause of this. Thanks.

habsfan,
This is expected behavior.  The PXI-1033 attempts to wake the host PC when it's turned on as a convenience so you can power up the whole system with a single switch.  The mechanism it uses is the PCIe WAKE# signal.
Is it a problem for you, or are you just suprised by it?  I don't think there's a way to disable it on the PXI-1033, but there may be other ways.  Many systems have an option to enable or disable waking the system from PCIe cards, so you could look through the BIOS options of your PC.  Or, if you power on the chassis 4-5 seconds before connecting the MXI cable it shouldn't wake the PC.

  • Computer does not boot when pxi 1033 is connected

    hiiiiii...........i am using NI pxi-1033 for my application & this pxi is connected to my system through PCIe-8361. i am using it from last 10 months, now suddenly my computer does not boot up. i start pxi first then start the computer but computer screen shows no signal. there is no blue screen error.
    can you give me any point to troubleshoot the problem.

    This probably doesn't help, since your setup used to work, but I have had to run the MXI Compatibility Tool on more than one PC.

    One PC would only boot one time in ten, before running the tool.

  • URGENT: PXI-1033 and DAQmx problem

    I bought new laptop with Express Card slot Dell Inspiron 6400. I have PXI-1033 with integrated MXI bridge, Express Card 8360 and PXI-modules: PXI-6251, 6115, 5114 and 4071. I installed drivers 8.3 and plugged in PXI modules into PXI-1033. I first power up PXI-1033 and than power up laptop (with Express Card in it). Laptop can not start, again can not, blue window, and at last start. In MAX is listed PXI chassis with bridge and all modules, but mx is not listed and I can not use it from LabVIEW. What is the problem?

    Hi,
    To clarify, do the PXI modules show up under DAQmx devices?  What color is the Link LED on the 1033?  Do the cards all show up in Windows Device Manager correctly?  Also, are you able to power on the laptop successfully now every time, or does is have trouble booting each time you try and start it up?
    Have you inspected the MXI cable for bent pins or any visible damage?
    Thanks!

  • AIM ARINC board not detected with MXIe in a PXI-1033 chassis

    Hi,
    I have a PXI-1033 chassis with NI PXI-6229 and AIM boards (ARINC 429 & AFDX) linked to a PC with MXIe.
    Windows can't attribute enough ressources to this device (indicated in the devices manager) so I can't install drivers for my boards.
    If I only put NI PXI-6229 in my chassis, all is OK.
    If I only put AIM boards in my chassis, Windows doesn't boot.
    I tried with a PXI-1036 chassis linked to my PC with MXI-4, all is running correctly (NI and AIM boards).
    Is there anyone who detects a problem of compatibility between AIM boards and MXIe links, and what is the solution ?
    Thanks for answers.

    Mmonterrat,
    Problems like this are quite often caused by the computer's BIOS.  Is there a BIOS update for your PC, and have you tried a different computer?

  • PXI-1033 fan specificat​ions

    The PXI-1033 chassis powers up (2 green LEDs) and then shuts down in about 5 seconds.  The fan does not spin.   Unplugging all PXI boards does not help.    Found procedure for replacing fan.  Is this the likely cause ?

    It may be worth a try, but I would bet it is a faulty power supply.
    For this chassis, you must get in touch with NI, and send it in for repair in order to replace the power supply.
    You can contact the Applications engineering department by visiting ni.com/ask and creating a Service Request.

  • Nano causes external to boot up

    Is there a way to stop my WD hard drive from spinning up everytime I plug in my nano? I don't keep anything on the hard drive that I'd be transferring to the nano so it's just a wasted boot each time.

  • G5 dual 2ghz.  Been unplugged for a while. Powers up but no video or power to usb keyboard.  Boots up fine in safe mode, restart into normal mode ok. After shutdown, back to same issue.  What's happening?

    G5 dual 2ghz.  Been unplugged for a while. Powers up but no video or power to usb keyboard.  Boots up fine in safe mode, restart into normal mode ok. After shutdown, back to same issue.  What's happening?

    I keep seeing people ask and the advice to replace if it has been unplugged, but really have nothing to confirm that from my experiences.
    My experience is that a weak or dead battery can cause much more than date and time issues.
    I have seen it time and time again.
    Deal with used machines and you will quickly learn....
    I'll give no "recipe" or set list of symptoms, but the range of irregularities that can occur make it a quick and easy first line of troubleshooting, especially when the machine has been off the mains for a few months.
    Why fight mysterious maladies and troubleshoot with the knowledge that the PRAM battery is beyond it's useful life.
    Maybe they recharge?
    Not likely. They are chemically nasty, disposable, one way discharge batteries.
    They aren't Lithium-ion batteries

  • Suitable Laptop for PXI-1033

    I am using a PXIe-8360 with a PXI-1033 and am trying to find a laptop that is compatible with this system.  NI states that not all laptops work with this configuration and has a list of laptops that do have been tested at (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5035).  This list is outdated and NI does not give any criterion on how to select a laptop that will work with this system on the webpage.  We have purchased an Acer 5680 and it doesn't seem compatible.  Is there a more recent list of laptops that are compatible?

    Hi PP83,
    I am afraid that the knowledgebase article you located (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5035) has the most up-to-date information regarding compatibility between laptops and the Expresscard-MXI for PXI and PXI Express.  National Instruments is actively testing motherboards and laptops so that we can comment on compatibility with our MXI products. 
    For information on motherboards, desktops, and workstations compatible
    with MXI products, you can create a service request with National Instruments PXI Support group at ni.com/support.

  • Power Mac G5 won't boot with Lion?

    After installing Lion, my early Intel 2010 Power Mac G5 won't boot. There were no problems for the first 2 days. The third day my G5 wouldn't boot at all. Not using Lion's recovery function, many attempts to boot from a previous system disk, and firewire target mode. The keyboard seems to be dead after attempting to boot except for the DVD eject key. All I get is a grey screen with an icon of a folder with a question mark within the folder. This icon blinks on and off continuously. Since the keyboard isn't working, I can't reset the PRAM, start in safe mode, or any other keyboard commands. The failed boot doesn't even get far enough for the Apple window to open. I replaced the hard drive and accomplished nothing except for spending even more money and time.
    This is VERY frustrating! Has anyone else had a similar problem with booting after Lion't installation??
    Thanks.

    1) you have a Mac pro Early 2009, remember this. It avoids confusion here in forum
    2) you're HDD's OS cannot be found by the firmware of the Mac hence it results to a question mark
    perform the following(recommended to use a USB keyboard)
    a) startup manager
    press and hold option on startup. Do u see your HDD?
    b) if you have a back up of your data then you can boot to the install disk and perform an erase and install
    repairing the permission will not work since the disc's OS is different from the HDD's OS.

  • NI PXI-4065 attached to PXI-1033 strange problem

    Hi all,
    I have a NI PXI-1033 Chassis together with NI PXI 4065 DMM and NI PXI 6514 device.
    The problem that I have is very annoying. When I restart my computer or install a new NI feature, the two NI PXI-6514 and PXI 4065 are no longer available as shown at the picture attached and I have to reinstall the drivers in order they to function properly. Why is this happening? Is it normal? 
    I will appreciate every help because it is urgent and important. Thank you!

    I know this topic is ancient but I'm having a similar problem with my system:
    PXI-1033 (thru external PC / PCIe)
    DAQmx 9.2.2
    LabVIEW 8.5
    Windows 7 (32-bit)
    When starting MAX it gives the MAXPXITimeout error. Then MAX crashes most of the time or when it works, none of the devices are "present" according to MAX, i.e no initialize, fail self-test, etc. I tried this command "net start nidevldu" and I get a "windows system error 5 - access denied". So I ran the command prompt as administrator and then the NI Device Loader "successfully started". Now MAX works OK and all my devices are working, until next reboot. Is this a permission issue? I tried changing the NI Device Loader service to log as an admin, but no luck. After rebooting the same issue.
    Appreciate the help. Thanks,

  • MAX does not recognize PXI-4056 DMM module with PXI-1033 chassis

    New to NI PXI chassis.   Using the PXI-1033 chassis with several installed modules.  I am able to see the chassis and two of the modules in MAX, but my PIX-4065(DMM) module is not listed/found.  Any advice?

    I have to ask the stupid questions first.  Do you have NI-DMM installed in your computer?  Is the DMM card fully inserted (I have seen people not lock the card in and expect it to work)?
    There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

  • Labview 8.0, pxi-1033

    Hola estoy armando una estacion de trabajo con Labview 8.0 y un PXI-1033 el cual contiene un LCR (pxi-4072) una DAQ (pxi-6225), una Matrix 4x128(PXI-2532), todo ello en windows 7.
    La cuestion es que en LAbview no veo ningun instrumento de los que tengo instalados, es decir no encuentro las funciones para poder accesar a el hardware.
    Por el contrario en Measurement & Automation estan todos perfectamente instalados y utilizables por medio del TEST PANELS.
    Les agradezco de antemanno su ayuda.
    Gracias 

    Buen día!
    LabVIEW 8.0 no está soportado por Windows 7, es probable que por eso no puedas ver tus instrumentos en LabVIEW pero sí en MAX.  En la siguiente liga podrás encontrar la compatibilidad entre las versiones de LabVIEW y Windows.

  • Pxi 1033 with expresscar​d 8360

    Hello,
    I have a PXI 1033 Chassis with ExpressCard 8360. I connect it to laptop using ExpressCard.
    I want to connect it to PC desktop. Would you please tell me how can I connect. What kind of board i need to connect ExpressCard to PC desktop.
    Best regards

    There are 2 options for using your PXI 1033 with a desktop.  You can buy an NI PCIe-8361 to go in your desktop, then switch the cable between your desktop (with the NI PCIe-8361) and your laptop (with the ExpressCard-8360).  Or you can buy an ExpressCard adapter for your computer.
    If you go the adapter route, you need to get one that plugs into a PCIe slot.  ExpressCard supports 2 interfaces: PCIe and USB.  On a "real" ExpressCard slot, both interfaces are available on the connector.  Some adapters plug into USB and only provide the USB interface, which works fine for ExpressCards that use the USB interface.  Some adapters plug into a PCIe slot and have a cable that plugs into a USB header on the motherboard, so it can support both interfaces (PCIe and USB).
    The ExpressCard-8360 uses PCIe, so any adapter that connects via USB simply won't work.  Also note that the card retention isn't very good, and the slot won't support hot-plug like a native ExpressCard port.

  • PXI-1033 Linux Support

    Hi,
    I have a setup with one PC connected to a USB-6009 and PXI-1033 chassis.
    On windows both of the hardware work perfect.
    Now I want to switch to Linux.
    I installed
    (1) NI-DAQmx Base 3.4 - SUSE, RedHat
    (2) PXI Platform Services 2.6 - Linux - Beta
    on a Scientific Linux 5.5
    Everything went pretty well, no errors. I answered yes to all questions
    Now, when I run lsdaq, only USB6009 is seen.
    nipxi/nipxiconfig -l all shows nothing.
    Is PXI-1033 supported on Linux ?

    The PXI chassis is configured as the following
    Slot 2,3 PXI-6255
    Slot 4-6 PXI-6723
    Connected to PC using PXIe-8361
    nipxiconfig did not identify any card or chassis.
    However, I believe the hardware connection is OK as I have the following lspci result
