WARNING - Hazardous Environments Symbol
This product is not specifically designed for use in hazardous environments, for example in explosive
atmospheres. If the product is to be used in hazardous environments we recommend that the user ensures
suitable protective measures are taken.
!
CAUTION - Handling of Electrostatic-Sensitive Devices Symbol
Certain semiconductor devices used in this equipment are liable to damage due to static voltage. Observe the
following precautions when handling these devices in their unterminated state, or sub-assemblies containing
these devices:
• Persons removing sub-assemblies from equipment using these devices must be earthed by a wrist strap
and a resistor at the point provided on the equipment.
• Soldering irons used during the repair operations must be low voltage types with earthed tips and isolated
from the mains voltage by a double insulated transformer.
• Outer clothing worn must be unable to generate static charges.
• Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) fitted with these devices must be stored and transported in anti-static bags.
Warnings & Cautions
WARNING - Danger of Electric Shock Symbol
This module may contain hazardous voltages. Before removing the module from the rack remove all supplies
and disconnect user I/O signals.
Unused slots in the PXI/PXIe/LXI chassis are populated with blanking plates to prevent access to user I/O
signals that may be present. Blanking panels are available to order from Pickering in a variety of slot widths.
If the product is not used in this manner for example by using an extender card then additional care must be
taken to avoid contact with exposed signals.
CAUTION - Product Documentation Symbol
Suitably qualified & trained users should ensure that the accompanying documentation is fully read and
understood before attempting to install or operate the product.
!
Safety Instructions
Safety Instructions
All cleaning and servicing requires the equipment to be isolated and disconnected from the power source and user I/O signals
(refer to the Maintenance Section).
• Appropriate manual handling procedures should be followed as dictated by the weight of the individual module or the
combined weight of the modules & chassis.
• Should a fault occur with the module or chassis, immediately isolate and disconnect the incoming power to the chassis and
the user I/O signals.
• Ensure the equipment is installed, operated and maintained by trained and authorised personnel.
• For suitably equipped products in the event of an emergency press the red “emergency stop” button situated on the front of
the unit.

43-921-003 Module
(Peripheral Slot
in PXIe Chassis)
The 43-921 PCI Express-to-PXI Express expansion kit allows
control of PXI Express modules installed in a PXI Express
chassis using high bandwidth PCI Express technology. The
extension kit provides up to 4 GB/s using PCIe Gen 2 x8
signalling. The 43-921 PCI Express-to-PXI Express expansion
kit provides additional PXI instrument slots to the host
computer by implementing a PCI Express-based control of
PXI modules. The technology consists of a 53-921-001 adapter
card installed in the host computer, a PCIe x8 cable, and a
43-921-00x 3U (Eurocard) remote control interface module.
The 53-921-001 comes in a PCI Express x8 footprint and is
equiped with a PCIe x8 cable connector.
The 43-921-001 with dual ports has the capability of multi-
chassis control in a daisy-chain configuration. The upper port
is connected to a 53-921-001 installed in a host PC and the
lower port is connected to a 43-921-002 in the system slot of
a second chassis. Alternatively, a 43-921-003 module fitted to
a peripheral slot in the first chassis can be used to control the
43-921-002 module in the second chassis - see diagram below.
With comprehensive hardware and software transparency, the
expansion kit enables fast and convenient detection of any PXI
cards installed in the system, requiring no additional drivers
or software.
