VXI/VME/MXI Debugging and Troubleshooting

This page contains links to several resources that provide valuable insights into using the debugging tools provided with National Instruments VXI/VME controllers. You should already be familiar with general VXI/VME terminology to use the resources listed here.

Interactive Communication Tools

Solving Resource Manager Errors

Restoring a Corrupt EEPROM

Resolving Data Corruption and Intermittent Communication Problems with Message Based Devices

VXI/VME Interrupts and Signals

Advanced Debugging Techniques and Tools
A VXI/VME bus analyzer or high-speed logic analyzer are extremely valuable tools for troubleshooting VXI/VME problems. Using a bus analyzer requires a strong understanding of the VXI/VME specifications and this is a topic that is beyond the scope of this document.

IEEE 1155 documents the VXI bus specification and IEEE 1024 documents the VME bus specification.
