NI 5742

32-Channel Signal Generator

Note Before you begin, install and configure your chassis and controller.

The NI 5742 is a 32-channel, 1 MS/s analog output adapter module designed to work in

conjunction with your NI FlexRIO™ FPGA module.

The NI 5742 features 16-bit analog output channels that can be configured to drive either

unipolar or bipolar output.

This document explains how to install and connect signals for the NI 5742R, which is

composed of a FlexRIO FPGA module and the NI 5742.

Caution The protection provided by the NI 5742 can be impaired if it is used in a

manner not described in this document.

The connection may be tight, but do not force the adapter module into place.

2. Tighten the captive screws on the NI FlexRIO adapter module to secure it to the

NI FlexRIO FPGA module. NI recommends using the laser-tipped screwdriver (part

number 748677-01) included in the NI 5742 packaging.

3. Launch LabVIEW to begin configuring your NI FlexRIO system.

Connecting Cables

• Use any shielded50 Ω SMA cable to connect signals to the connectors on the front panel

of your NI 5742

• Use the SHH19-H19-AUX cable (NI part number: 152629-01 or 152629-02) to connect

to the digital I/O (DIO) and programmable function interface (PFI) signals on the AUX

I/O connector. NI recommends using the SCB-19 connector block to access the DIO and

PFI signals.

• Use the NI SHC68-C68-D4 VHDCI cable (NI part number: 196275-01) to connect to the

AO 0-31 connector.

Removing the Adapter Module

Complete the following steps to remove the adapter module from the FlexRIO FPGA module.

Disabling the Adapter Module in LabVIEW FPGA

To properly remove an adapter module from the FlexRIO FPGA module, you must disable the

adapter module within the LabVIEW FPGA user interface. To disable the adapter module

within LabVIEW, complete the following steps.

1. In your LabVIEW Project Explorer window, right-click the IO Module item under the

FPGA Target and select Properties to display the IO Module Properties dialog box.

2. Click the Status category to view the adapter module Status dialog.

3. Deselect the checkbox for Enable IO Module Power. When this option is deselected,

firmware tristates the FlexRIO I/O and disables all adapter module power rails.

4. Click OK.

Uninstalling the Module

Caution If the module has been in use, it may exceed safe handling temperatures

and cause burns. Allow the module to cool before removing it from the chassis.

1. Disconnect any cables from the module front panel connectors.

Caution Disconnect any external clock or digital connections to the device

front panel. Applying external signals while the device is powered off may

cause damage.

2. Power off the chassis.

3. Ground yourself with a grounding strap or touch a grounded metal surface.

4. Unlatch the module by pushing down on the ejector handle.

5. Hold the module by the ejector handle and remove it from the slot.

Store the module in the original antistatic packaging when not in use to avoid damage.
