2. PXIe-4147 Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information

Notice To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) from damaging the module,

ground yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded object, such as

your computer chassis.

1. Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of the computer chassis.

2. Remove the module from the package and inspect it for loose components or other signs

of damage.

Notice Never touch the exposed pins of connectors.

Note Do not install a module if it appears damaged in any way.

3. Unpack any other items and documentation from the kit.

Store the module in the antistatic package when the module is not in use.

Other Equipment

There are several required items not included in your PXIe-4147 kit that you need to operate

the PXIe-4147. Your application may require additional items not included in your kit to

install or operate your PXIe-4147.

Required Items

• A PXI Chassis and chassis documentation

• A PXI Controller or PC with a Device for PXI Remote Control system that meets the

system requirements specified in this guide and chassis documentation

2| ni.com | PXIe-4147 Getting Started Guide

Optional Items

• PXI Slot Blocker Kit (NI part number 199198-01)

Notice The PXIe-4147 provides higher maximum current and more precise

current measurement capabilities than earlier PXIe-414x modules.

Consequently, PXIe-4147 performance can be compromised by the accessories

associated with those modules. The following accessories are not recommended

for use with the PXIe-4147.

– DB25F-DB25F, 25-pin D-SUB Low Leakage Cable for SMU

• 1 m (NI part number 782015-01)

• 2 m (NI part number 782015-02)

– Screw Terminal Connector Kit for PXIe-414x SMUs (NI part number

781974-01)

Visit ni.com for more information about these additional items.

Preparing the Environment

Ensure that the environment you are using the PXIe-4147 in meets the following

specifications:

Temperature and Humidity

Temperature

Operating 0 °C to 55 °C1

Storage -40 °C to 71 °C

Humidity

Operating 10% to 90%, noncondensing2

Storage 5% to 95%, noncondensing

1Not all chassis can achieve this ambient temperature range. Refer to PXI chassis specifications to

determine the ambient temperature ranges your chassis can achieve.

2When transitioning a device from a storage or operation environment with relative humidity above

70%, device should be allowed to stabilize in the lower humidity environment for several hours

before use. Refer to the PXIe-4147 Programming and Measurement Accuracy/Resolution

specifications for additional performance derating when operating above 70% relative humidity.

Maximum altitude 2,000 m (800 mbar) (at 25 °C ambient temperature)

Notice This model is intended for use in indoor applications only.

Related Information

Refer to the PXIe-4147 Specifications at ni.com for complete specifications.

Installing the Software

You must be an Administrator to install NI software on your computer.

1. Install an application development environment (ADE), such as LabVIEW or

LabWindowsTM/CVITM.

2. To install the latest NI-DCPower instrument driver, open NI Package Manager.

Note Ensure that you have installed the latest version of NI Package Manager.

To access the download page for NI Package Manager, go to ni.com/info and

enter info code NIPMDownload.

3. In NI Package Manager, search for NI-DCPower.

The NI-DCPower driver appears in the results.

4. Select NI-DCPower and click INSTALL.

Driver support for the PXIe-4147 was first available in NI-DCPower 20.0.

5. Follow the instructions in the installation prompts.

Note Windows users may see access and security messages during

installation. Accept the prompts to complete the installation.

Installing the PXIe-4147

Notice To prevent damage to the PXIe-4147 caused by ESD or contamination,

handle the module using the edges or the metal bracket.

The PXIe-4147 is a single-slot module with one backplane connector. The module may be

installed into any PXI Express-compatible slot.

1. Ensure the AC power source is connected to the chassis before installing the PXIe-4147.

The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you

install the PXIe-4147.

2. Power off the chassis.

3. Inspect the slot pins on the chassis backplane for any bends or damage prior to

installation. Do not install a module if the backplane is damaged.

4. Position the chassis so that inlet and outlet vents are not obstructed.

4| ni.com | PXIe-4147 Getting Started Guide

For more information about optimal chassis positioning, refer to the chassis

documentation.

5. Remove the black plastic covers from all the captive screws on the module front panel.

6. Identify a supported slot in the chassis. The following figure shows the symbols that

indicate the slot types.

5. PXI Express Peripheral Slot

PXIe-4147 modules can be placed in PXI Express peripheral slots, PXI Express hybrid

peripheral slots, or PXI Express system timing slots.

7. Touch any metal part of the chassis to discharge static electricity.

8. Ensure that the ejector handle is in the downward (unlatched) position.

9. Place the module edges into the module guides at the top and bottom of the chassis. Slide

the module into the slot until it is fully inserted.

11. Secure the module front panel to the chassis using the front-panel mounting screws.

Note Tightening the top and bottom mounting screws increases mechanical

stability and also electrically connects the front panel to the chassis, which can

improve the signal quality and electromagnetic performance.

12. Cover all empty slots using EMC filler panels or fill using slot blockers to maximize

cooling air flow, depending on your application.

13. Power on the chassis.

reset.

Configuring the PXIe-4147 in MAX

Use Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure your NI hardware. MAX

informs other programs about which NI hardware products are in the system and how they are

configured. MAX is automatically installed with NI-DCPower.

1. Launch MAX.

2. In the configuration tree, expand Devices and Interfaces to see the list of installed NI

hardware.

Installed modules appear under the name of their associated chassis.

3. Expand your Chassis tree item.

8| ni.com | PXIe-4147 Getting Started Guide

MAX lists all modules installed in the chassis. Your default names may vary.

Note If you do not see your module listed, press <F5> to refresh the list of

installed modules. If the module is still not listed, power off the system, ensure

the module is correctly installed, and restart.

4. Record the identifier MAX assigns to the hardware. Use this identifier when

programming the PXIe-4147.

5. Self-test the hardware by selecting the item in the configuration tree and clicking Self-

Test in the MAX toolbar.

The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.

Self-Calibrating the PXIe-4147

Self-calibration adjusts the PXIe-4147 for variations in the module environment. Perform a

complete self-calibration after the first time you install the PXIe-4147.

1. Install the PXIe-4147 and let it warm up for 30 minutes.

Note Warm up begins when the PXI Express chassis has been powered on and

the operating system has completely loaded.

2. Self-calibrate the PXIe-4147 by clicking the Self-Calibrate button in MAX or calling

niDCPower Cal Self Calibrate or niDCPower_CalSelfCalibrate.

The PXIe-4147 modules are externally calibrated at the factory but you should perform a self-

calibration in all of the following situations:

• After first installing the PXIe-4147 in a chassis

• After any module that is in the same chassis as the PXIe-4147 is installed, uninstalled, or

moved

• When the PXIe-4147 is in an environment where the ambient temperature varies or the

PXIe-4147 temperature has drifted more than ±5 °C from the temperature at the last self-

calibration

• Within 24 hours of the previous self-calibration
