Installing the NI FlexRIO Devices
Note You must install the software before installing the hardware.
Unpacking
The NI 7971R modules ship in antistatic packages to prevent electrostatic discharge from
damaging module components. To prevent such damage when handling the modules, ground
yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded object, such as your computer
chassis, and complete the following steps:
1. Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of the computer chassis before removing the
module from the package.
Caution Never touch the exposed pins of connectors.
2. Remove each module from the package and inspect it for loose components or any other
sign of damage.
Notify NI if the modules appear damaged in any way. Do not install a damaged module into
the chassis.
Preparing the Environment
Ensure that the environment you are using the NI 7971R in meets the following specifications.
............................................................................Operating temperature (IEC
60068-2-1, IEC60068-2-2)
0 °C to 55 °C
............................................................................Operating humidity
(IEC 60068-2-56)
10% to 90% RH, noncondensing
............................................................................Pollution Degree 2
............................................................................Maximum altitude 2,000 m at 25 °C ambient temperature
Indoor use only.
Note Refer to the NI PXIe-7971R Specifications at ni.com/manuals for complete
specifications.

Installing the NI FlexRIO FPGA Module
Note You must install the software before you install the hardware.
1. Power off and unplug the PXI Express chassis. Refer to your chassis manual to install or
configure the chassis.
2. Identify a supported PXI Express slot in the chassis. The figure below shows the symbols
that indicate the slot types in a PXI Express chassis.

Refer to the chassis documentation for specifications.
3. Remove the filler panel of an unused PXI Express slot.
4. Touch any metal part of the chassis to discharge any static electricity. Place the PXI
Express module edges into the module guides at the top and bottom of the chassis, and
slide the module into the chassis until the module is fully inserted, as shown in the figure
below.

Confirming that Measurement & Automation Explorer
(MAX) Recognizes the Device
Use Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure your National Instruments
hardware. MAX informs other programs about which devices reside in the system and how
they are configured. MAX is automatically installed with NI FlexRIO Support.
1. Launch MAX by navigating to Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI MAX or
by clicking the NI MAX desktop icon.
2. In the Configuration pane, double-click Devices and Interfaces to see the list of installed
devices. Installed devices appear under the name of their associated chassis.
8| ni.com | NI PXIe-7971R FPGA Module Getting Started Guide

3. Expand your Chassis tree item. MAX lists all devices installed in the chassis. Your
default device names may vary.
Note If you do not see your hardware listed, press <F5> to refresh the list of
installed devices. If the device is still not listed, power off the system, ensure
the device is correctly installed, and restart.
Installing the NI FlexRIO Adapter Module
Note Skip this step if you are not using an adapter module.
1. Gently insert the guide pins and the high-density card edge of the NI FlexRIO adapter
module into the corresponding connectors of the NI FlexRIO FPGA module, as shown in
the figure below.

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 PXIe-7971R packaging.
3. Launch LabVIEW to begin configuring your NI FlexRIO system.
Note MAX only recognizes FPGA modules that are in the chassis. Your
adapter module will not appear in MAX.

Installing PXI EMC Filler Panels
To ensure specified EMC performance, PXI EMC filler panels must be properly installed in
your NI FlexRIO system. The PXI EMC filler panels (National Instruments part number
778700-01) must be purchased separately.
1. Remove the captive screw covers.
2. Install the PXI EMC filler panels by securing the captive mounting screws to the chassis,
as shown in the figure below. Make sure that the EMC gasket is on the right side of the
PXI EMC filler panel.
