Adlink Compact PCI (cPCI) with PXI devices

Thought I would post this here in case someone is searching for it as I was. There seems to be no online reference except the PXI reference document its self. I came up with a correct pxisys.ini for a cPCI chassis with PXI cards in slot 3,4,5 (you can move them to any three slots) where the PXI signal bus is exported to the J2 connector on the rear of the chassis. Might come in handy if you want to route triggers and PXICLK10 signals onto your PXI cards. These routes are disabled by default on a cPCI chassis for the NI cards.

[Version] Major = 2 Minor = 1 [PXI System] ChassisList = 1 [Chassis1] Model = "ADLINK CPCIS-2630" Vendor = "ADLINK Inc." PCIBusSegmentList = 1 SlotList = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 TriggerBusList = 1,2,3 StarTriggerList = None

[Chassis1PCIBusSegment1] SlotList = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

Hope this might help someone, Mark DeArman
