DRAM General Properties Page

In the DRAM Bank 0 Properties dialog box, select General from the Category list to display this page.

Use this page to configure the type of memory interface that should be used when communicating with external DRAM.

This page contains the following components:

• Enable DRAM—Enables the DRAM. Unchecking this box disables access to the DRAM for the selected DRAM bank.
• Memory Interface—Lists all memory interfaces that are compatible with the selected DRAM bank item. If multiple versions of a memory interface are available, the version information displays next to the memory interface name.
• Details—Displays general information about the selected DRAM memory interface item.
• Path—Displays the file system path to the XML file for the currently selected memory interface file.
• Reload—Reload the currently selected memory interface in the table. Use the Reload button if you modify a memory interface XML file on disk after you configure it for use with your FPGA target. Reload updates the I/O in the LabVIEW project and details information, but changes may not be visible in the Memory Interface or Path dialogs.

The NI PXIe-5641R ships with two memory interface support options which provide access to the external DRAM memory. Refer to the DRAM Memory Interface Reference topic for more information.
