INSTALLATION GUIDE
NI PXIe-8840
This document contains information about installing the NI PXIe-8840 controller in a
PXI Express chassis. For complete configuration and troubleshooting information (including
information about BIOS setup, adding RAM, and so on), refer to the NI PXIe-8840 User
Manual. The manual is in PDF format on the documentation CD included with the controller and
on the National Instruments website, ni.com.
Installing the NI PXIe-8840
This section contains general installation instructions for the NI PXIe-8840. Consult the
NI PXIe-8840 User Manual for specific instructions and warnings.
1. Plug in the chassis before installing the NI PXIe-8840. The power cord grounds the chassis
and protects it from electrical damage while you install the module. Make sure the power
switch is turned off.
Cautions In some National Instruments chassis, such as the NI PXIe-1082, you
must ensure that the power LED is off. For more information about chassis power
behavior, refer to the user manual for the specific chassis.
To protect both yourself and the chassis from electrical hazards, leave the chassis off
until you finish installing the NI PXIe-8840 module.
2. Remove any panels blocking access to the system controller slot (slot 1) in the chassis.
3. Touch the metal part of the case to discharge any static electricity that might be on your
clothes or body.

4. Remove the protective plastic covers from the four bracket-retaining screws as shown in
Figure 1.

5. Make sure the injector/ejector handle is in its downward position. Align the NI PXIe-8840
with the card guides on the top and bottom of the system controller slot.
Caution Do not raise the injector/ejector handle as you insert the NI PXIe-8840.
The module will not insert properly unless the handle is in its downward position so
that it does not interfere with the injector rail on the chassis.
6. Hold the handle as you slowly slide the module into the chassis until the handle catches on
the injector/ejector rail.
7. Raise the injector/ejector handle until the module firmly seats into the backplane receptacle
connectors. The front panel of the NI PXIe-8840 should be even with the front panel of the
chassis.
8. Tighten the four bracket-retaining screws on the top and bottom of the front panel to secure
the NI PXIe-8840 to the chassis.
9. Check the installation.
10. Connect the keyboard and mouse to the appropriate connectors. If you are using a PS/2
keyboard and a PS/2 mouse, a Y-splitter adapter is available to connect both to a single USB
connector. National Instruments offers a Y-splitter adapter cable, part number 778713-02,
available through the online catalog at ni.com/products.
11. Connect the DisplayPort monitor video cable to the DisplayPort connector, or use the
DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter included with your controller to connect a VGA monitor to
the DisplayPort connector.
12. Connect peripherals to ports as required by your system configuration.
13. Power on the display. Refer to the NI PXIe-8840 User Manual for details.

14. Power on the chassis.
15. Verify that the controller boots. If it does not boot, refer to the What If the NI PXIe-8840
Does Not Boot? section later in this guide.

How to Remove the Controller from the PXI Express
Chassis
The NI PXIe-8840 controller is designed for easy handling. To remove the unit from the
PXI Express chassis:
1. Power off the chassis.
2. Remove any cables that may be attached to the controller front panel.
3. Unscrew the four bracket-retaining screws in the front panel.
4. Press the injector/ejector handle down.
5. Slide the unit out of the chassis.
What If the NI PXIe-8840 Does Not Boot?
Several problems can cause a controller not to boot. Here are some things to look for and
possible solutions.
Things to Notice
• Which LEDs come on? The Power OK LED should stay lit. The Drive LED should blink
during boot as the disk is accessed.

• What appears on the display? Does it hang at some particular point (BIOS, Operating
System, and so on)? If nothing appears on the screen, try a different monitor. Does your
monitor work with a different PC? If it hangs, note the last screen output that you saw for
reference when consulting National Instruments technical support.
• What has changed about the system? Did you recently move the system? Was there
electrical storm activity? Did you recently add a new module, memory chip, or piece of
software?
Things to Try
• Make sure the chassis is plugged in to a working power source.
• Check any fuses or circuit breakers in the chassis or other power supply (possibly an
uninterruptible power supply).
• Make sure the controller module is firmly seated in the chassis.
• Remove all other modules from the chassis.
• Remove any nonessential cables or devices.
• Try the controller in a different chassis or a similar controller in this same chassis.
• Clear the CMOS. (Refer to the System CMOS section of the NI PXIe-8840 User Manual.)
• Recover the hard drive on the controller. (Refer to the Hard Drive Recovery section of the
NI PXIe-8840 User Manual.)
For more troubleshooting information, refer to the NI PXIe-8840 User Manual. The manual is
in PDF format on the documentation CD included with your controller and on the National
Instruments Web site, ni.com.
What If I Can’t See the Video?
This problem usually results from having the video card output set past the limits of the monitor.
You will need to boot Windows in Safe Mode. To do this, reboot the controller. As Windows
begins to boot, hold down <F8>. You should now be able to reset the video driver to lower
settings. Try setting the resolution to 640 × 480 and the refresh rate to 60 Hz. Once you reboot,
you can raise these values again, using the test option in Windows. These settings are accessible
through the Advanced tab of the Display item in the Control Panel. Alternately, you can try a
different monitor, preferably a newer and larger one.
