Configuration and Installation
This chapter describes how to configure and install your 7344/7334
controller.
Software Installation
Install your FlexMotion software, along with your Motion VI libraries
(if appropriate) before you install the 7344/7334 controller. Refer to the
release notes included with your 7344/7334 controller for specific
instructions on the software installation sequence for your host PC.
Controller Configuration
The motion I/O-related configuration of the 7344/7334 controller is
performed entirely with software, so there are no jumpers to set for motion
I/O configuration.
The PCI-7344, PXI-7344, and PCI-7334 controllers are fully compatible
with the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1. The FW-7344
controller is fully compatible with the IEEE 1394 specification. This
compatibility allows the computer to automatically perform all bus-related
configuration and requires no user interaction. There are no jumpers to
configure for bus-related configuration.
Hardware Installation
You can install the PCI-7344, PXI-7344, or PCI-7334 controller in any
open compatible expansion slot in your computer. The typical power
required for each controller is given in Appendix A,
Specifications .
You can connect your FW-7344 to any available 1394 port. The FW-7344
supports IEEE 1394 transfer rates at up to 400 Mbits/s.
