Its backplanes is compliant with PXI Specification Rev. 2.2. The signals on the P1 connector of the backplane meet the requirements of the CompactPCI specification for both the peripheral and system modules. The PXI-specific signals are located on P2. Only the signals that are reserved or not used in the CompactPCI 64-bit specification are found on PXI-specific signals. Therefore, peripheral modules that meet the requirements of the CompactPCI 64-bit specification will function in the PXIS-2719. # Note: Do NOT install CompactPCI peripheral modules which operate with rear I/O modules in PXIS-2719 due to the possible conflict between rear I/O signals and PXI-specific signals on J2. # 2.3.2 System Controller Slot The System Controller slot is Slot 1 of the chassis as defined by the PXI specification. The PXIS-2719 chassis can accommodate a PXI system controller that occupies up to 3 slots width. As defined in the PXI specification, two controller expansion slots allow the controller to expand to the left to prevent the controller from using up peripheral slots. # 2.3.3 Star Trigger Slot The Star Trigger (ST) slot is Slot 2. This slot has dedicated trigger lines between ST slot itself and slots 3-15. The star trigger functionality is intended to provide a precise trigger signal to the peripheral modules by installing a specific star trigger controller module in the ST slot. The star trigger slot can be also used as a general peripheral slot if you do not need the star trigger functionality. # 2.3.4 Peripheral Slots There are 18 peripheral slots in PXIS-2719 (including the Star Trigger controller slot). Each peripheral slot can accommodate a 3U PXI/CompactPCI peripheral module. Note: DO NOT install a 3U CompactPCI module with rear I/O function in the PXIS-2719 chassis. ![Based on the provided image, here is an accurate and concise description of the flowchart:\n\n**Labeled Blocks:**\n* **10 MHz Clock and Buffer Circuitry** (Top center)\n* **System Controller** (Far left vertical bar)\n* **Star Trigger Controller** (Vertical bar, labeled '2' at the bottom)\n* **Peripheral Slot** (Vertical bars, repeated 16 times, labeled '3' through '18' at the bottom)\n* **Bridge** (Small boxes at the very bottom, appearing twice)\n\n**Connections:**\n* **Clock Distribution:** Multiple lines extend downward from the **10 MHz Clock and Buffer Circuitry** to connect to the top of every vertical block (**Star Trigger Controller** and all **Peripheral Slot** blocks).\n* **System Control:** Lines extend from the **System Controller** to the right, connecting into the vertical blocks.\n* **Local Bus:** Double-headed horizontal arrows labeled **Local Bus** connect each adjacent vertical block (between the Star Trigger Controller and the first Peripheral Slot, and between every subsequent Peripheral Slot).\n* **Main Bus:** Large horizontal double-headed arrows run along the bottom of the diagram, labeled **PXI Trigger Bus Segment and PCI Bus Segment**.\n* **Bridges:** Arrows connect the bottom bus segments to the two **Bridge** blocks located below them.](.pxis-2719-50-17029-1000-007/4efb67be418144091b6c0aa4f933da78b5da31d8ff4e1c7377ed6772a29bc169.jpg) Figure 2-1: PXI Bus Signal Routing # 2.3.5 Local Bus The local bus on a PXI backplane is a daisy-chained bus that connects each peripheral slot with its adjacent peripheral slots to the left and right. Each local bus has 13 lines and can transmit analog or digital signals between modules. It can also provide a high-speed side-band communication path that does not affect the PCI bandwidth. In accordance with the PXI specification, the local bus connects all adjacent slots except slots 1 and 2. # 2.3.6 Trigger Bus The trigger bus is a 8-lines bus that connects all PXI slots in the same PCI segment. The trigger bus can be used to provide inter-module synchronization mechanism. PXI modules can transmit trigger or clock signals to one another through trigger bus, allowing precisely timed responses to asynchronous external events the system is monitoring or controlling. # 2.3.7 System Reference Clock PXIS-2719 supplies the PXI 10MHz system reference clock (PXI\_CLK10) to each peripheral slot for inter-module synchronization. An independent buffer (having source impedance matched to the backplane and a skew of less than 1 ns between slots) drives the clock signal generated from a high-precision oscillator to each peripheral slot. This common reference clock signal can be used to synchronize multiple modules in a PXI chassis. # 3 Installation This chapter describes the procedures to set up the PXI chassis, install the PXI system controller and peripheral modules, and power up the system. It also provides information on cooling considerations, rack-mounting, and installing proper driver/software. # 3.1 Cooling Consideration The PXIS-2719 implements the forced air-cooling mechanism to provide efficient and uniform heat dissipation. The cold air is intaken through filters and fan inlets on the bottom of the chassis and the hot air is exhausted though the outlet apertures in the upper rear of the chassis. When you place the PXIS-2719 on a bench top, providing adequate clearance for the inlet apertures is necessary. And for better cooling efficiency, keep the feet stand if possible. When rack mounting the PXIS-2719, at least 1U (44.5 mm/1.75 in.) clearance below the intake apertures is required. And please also keep other object or equipment at a minimum of 76.2 mm (3 in.) away from the outlet apertures in the rear region of the chassis. # Note: The cooling design of PXI-2719 allows an air flow from bottom to the rear of chassis though PXI modules. To maintain an expected air flow, please always install filler panels for unused slots. The filler panels can be found in the package of the chassis. ![Cross-sectional diagram of a 3D printer or scanner device showing internal components and airflow direction (no text or symbols)](.pxis-2719-50-17029-1000-007/ea54b229549b1724c910feea34f3adf2466761d6c31d9429e55b8574f3e304d1.jpg) # 3.2 Rack Mounting ADLINK provides an optional rack-mount kit to install the PXIS-2719 into a rack. The rack-mount kit can flexibly recess the PXIS-2719 in the rack to accommodate external mechanical parts on the front side, such as cables and mass interconnect modules. ![Technical diagram of a rack-mounted server or server unit with numbered components for identification.](.pxis-2719-50-17029-1000-007/d934e7992e4904b7c338a12b56a4b23166e502ca01de60774a3a5e2d87603e8e.jpg) To assemble the rack-mount kit and mount the PXIS-2719 in a rack: 1.

Install the mounting brackets (④) to the side of the chassis using two M4 screws supplied. You can adjust the position of mounting brackets to recess the chassis in the rack at any distance. 5. Install the chassis in the rack using eight screws (not included). # 3.3 Hardware Installation # 3.3.1 Selecting 10 Mhz Reference Clock Source The 10 MHz reference clock is an important mechanism in PXI specification for inter-module synchronization. PXI modules which have phase-locker loop circuit can lock the 10 MHz reference clock to generate an in-phase timebase. The PXIS-2719 PXI chassis allows users to select the source of 10 MHz reference clock as ▶ Built-in accurate 10 MHz oscillator ▶ External 10 MHz clock through a BNC connector ▶ PXI\_CLK10\_IN pin on the star trigger slot You can set the source of 10 MHz reference clock by a DIP switch on the front side of backplane. Please refer to Table 3-1 for the setting. ![Close-up of an electronic circuit board with a highlighted component (red circle) and alphanumeric labels, no readable text or symbols on the main components.](.pxis-2719-50-17029-1000-007/3654cb858f3e444a5f381b5a8a4e444000fe3729c0d3748145a1f2dd3e8e7926.jpg)
