NI RF Signal Generators Getting Started Guide
If using a MXI controller, right-click PCI-to-PCI Bridge and 
select Properties from the shortcut menu to verify that the bridge 
is enabled.
5.
If either module still fails to appear in the MAX NI-DAQmx Devices 
folder, contact NI technical support or visit

.
Module Fails the Self-Test
The MAX self-test performs a brief test of device resources. If an NI RF 
signal generator hardware module does not pass the self-test, complete the 
following steps:
1.
Reboot the system.
2.
Launch MAX and perform the self-test again. 
3.
If either module still fails the self-test, contact NI technical support or

Thermal Shutdown Error
The thermal shutdown error appears when device temperatures exceed safe 
limits. The NI RF signal generator shuts down until temperatures fall to 
acceptable levels and you reset the device in MAX.
To re-enable the NI RF signal generator after thermal shutdown, complete 
the following steps:
1.
Power down the chassis that contains the device.
2.
Review the procedure in the 
 section and make any necessary 
adjustments to ensure that the device is effectively cooled.
3.
Call the niRFSG Reset Device VI or the 
niRFSG_ResetDevice
 
function to perform a device reset in MAX. The thermal shutdown 
error continues to be reported until the device has been successfully 
reset.
Note
 Refer to the 
 or 
 section for information on performing device resets in MAX.
Performance Issues Using A MXI Connection
When using a MXI-3 connection to control the PXI chassis, you must run 
the MXI Optimization Application prior to using the NI RF signal 
generator. By default, this application runs automatically when Windows 
starts. Using a MXI connection without running this application may result 
in a 
time
 
exceeded
 or 
internal
 
software
 
error
, or an initialization, 
timeout, or performance issue when using an NI RF signal generator.
