Other Equipment

There are required items not included in your kit that you need to install or operate

the PXIe-5832. Your application may require additional items not included in your

kit to install or operate your hardware.

Required Items

■A PXI Express chassis and chassis documentation. To ensure specifications

are valid, NI recommends using the PXIe-1095 Chassis or PXIe-1092 Chassis for

your hardware. For more information about compatible chassis options, refer

to ni.com.

Pollution Degree 2

Indoor use only.

Notice Clean the hardware with a so, nonmetallic brush or lint free

cloth. Make sure that the hardware is completely dry and free from

contaminants before returning it to service.

Note Refer to the PXIe-5832 Specifications at ni.com/manuals for

complete specifications.

Soware Options

NI provides three soware options for programming the PXIe-5832—RFmx, NI-RFSA

and NI-RFSG instrument driver soware.

Table 2. PXIe-5832 Soware Options

Soware Option Description Use Case

RFmx Provides a single-handle

instrument driver with built-in

measurements.

You can use instrument driver

FPGA extensions to customize

the device FPGA using

precompiled bitfiles.

Use RFmx SpecAn to perform

spectral measurements.

Use RFmx Demod to perform

modulation quality

measurements, such as EVM.

Use RFmx personalities to

perform physical layer analysis

on supported communications

and connectivity signals.

NI-RFSA and NI-RFSG

instrument driver

The NI-RFSA and NI-RFSG APIs

each provide a fixed API for

interacting with your hardware.

NI-RFSA and NI-RFSG provide

standard IVI-based

functionality needed for most

vector signal analyzer and

vector signal generator

applications.

You can use NI-RFSA and

NI-RFSG instrument driver

FPGA extensions to customize

Use NI-RFSA to create custom

measurements or applications

that require I/Q data.

Use NI-RFSG to generate

continuous wave (CW) or

modulated waveforms.

Use NI-RFSA and NI-RFSG with

the NI Modulation Toolkit to

develop soware-defined radio

transmitters and receivers.

Use NI-RFSG with the

NI Modulation Toolkit to create

Soware Option Description Use Case

the device FPGA using

precompiled bitfiles.

and generate modulated

signals to test receivers.

■Refer to the RFmx SpecAn Help, the RFmx Demod Help, the NI RF

Vector Signal Analyzers Help, or the NI RF Signal Generators Help for more

information about using the RFmx, NI-RFSA, and NI-RFSG instrument driver

FPGA extensions.

Installing the Soware

You must be an Administrator to install NI soware on your computer.

1. Install an ADE, such as LabVIEW or LabWindows™/CVI™.

2. Download the driver soware installer from ni.com/downloads.

NI Package Manager downloads with the driver soware to handle the

installation. Refer to the NI Package Manager Manual for more information

about installing, removing, and upgrading NI soware using NI Package

Manager.

3. Follow the instructions in the installation prompts.

Note Windows users may see access and security messages during

installation. Accept the prompts to complete the installation.

4. When the installer completes, select Restart in the dialog box that prompts

you to restart, shut down, or restart later.

Installing the PXIe-5832

Notice To prevent damage to the PXIe-5832 caused by ESD or

contamination, handle the module using the edges or the metal bracket.

1. Ensure the AC power source is connected to the chassis before installing the

module.

ni.com

PXIe-5832 Getting Started

The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage

while you install the module.

2. Power o the chassis.

3. Inspect the slot pins on the chassis backplane for any bends or damage prior

to installation. Do not install a module if the backplane is damaged.

4. Remove the black plastic covers from all the captive screws on the module

front panel.

5. Identify a supported slot in the chassis. The following figure shows the

symbols that indicate the slot types.

Figure 1. Chassis Compatibility Symbols

1. PXI Express System Controller Slot

2. PXI Peripheral Slot

3. PXI Express Hybrid Peripheral Slot

4. PXI Express System Timing Slot

5. PXI Express Peripheral Slot

6. Touch any metal part of the chassis to discharge static electricity.

7. Ensure that the ejector handle is in the downward (unlatched) position.

8. Place the module edges into the module guides at the top and bottom of the

chassis. Slide the module into the slot until it is fully inserted.

2. Hardware Module

3. Ejector Handle in Downward (Unlatched) Position

9. Latch the module in place by pulling up on the ejector handle.

10. Secure the module front panel to the chassis using the front-panel mounting

screws.

Note Tightening the top and bottom mounting screws increases

mechanical stability and also electrically connects the front panel to

the chassis, which can improve the signal quality and

electromagnetic performance.

11. Cover all empty slots using either filler panels (standard or EMC) or slot

blockers with filler panels, depending on your application.

Note For more information about installing slot blockers and filler

panels, go to ni.com/r/pxiblocker.

12. Power on the chassis.
