National Instruments PXI-1056 Dual-stack High-speed Chassis

The National Instruments PXI-1056 is a 3U/6U dual-stack Chassis that can fit a 4-slot controller and 6U and 3U modules. This Chassis can fit as many as seven 6U modules and three 3U modules for a total of seventeen 3U modules. A 6U module is two times the height of a 3U module. The NI PXI-1056 dual-stacks 3U modules sideways in the Chassis. The PXI-1056 acknowledges all NI PXI inserted and remote controllers, including Pentium M and Pentium 4 installed controllers that run Windows or LabVIEW Real-Time. The Chassis is intended for applications where custom 6U modules or top of the line RF modules, accessible in the 6U format, should be utilized as part of a single framework with 3U modules monetarily accessible from various sellers. More than 1,150 PXI/CompactPCI products are accessible in the 3U PXI format, so there is a vast number of 3U modules from which to pick. This model offers 5 part numbers: 779469-05 converts 5 6U Slots to 10 3U Slots, 779469-04 converts 4 6U Slots to 8 3U Slots, 779470-01 converts 1 6U Slots to 2 3U Slots, 779469-03 converts 3 6U Slots to 6 3U Slots, and 779469-02 converts 2 6U Slots to 4 3U Slots.

The PXI-1056 Chassis gives control over the whole operating scope of 0 to 55 °C with a vigorous power supply situated in a removable power carry with an MTTR of less than 1 minute. Six double shading LED markers on the front board show frame status, four demonstrate the status of voltage rails (+3.3, 5, +12, - 12 V), one shows fan status (FAN), and another demonstrates an over-temperature condition (TEMP). There is additionally an AUTO/HIGH fan speed selector switch that modifies fan speed despite the Chassis inlet temperature.
