What Should I Do if the PXI-5691 Does Not Appear in MAX?

  1. In the MAX configuration tree, expand Devices and Interfaces.
  2. Expand the Chassis tree to see the list of installed hardware, and press <F5> to refresh the list.
  3. If the module is still not listed, power off the system, ensure that all hardware is correctly installed, and restart the system.
  4. Navigate to the Device Manager by right-clicking the Start button, and selecting Device Manager.
  5. Verify the PXI-5691 appears in the Device Manager.
    1. Under an NI entry, confirm that a PXI-5691 entry appears.
      Note If you are using a PC with a device for PXI remote control system, under System Devices, also confirm that no error conditions appear for the PCI-to-PCI Bridge.
    2. If error conditions appear, reinstall the the NI-5690 instrument driver driver.
