Chapter 3 VXI-MXI-2 Configuration and Installation
PCI-MXI-2 for Linux 3-14 ni.com
Use switch 2 of U35 to select whether you want the VXI-MXI-2 to
automatically control termination of the MXIbus. Switch 1 of U35 lets
you manually control whether to terminate the MXIbus when automatic
termination is turned off. Switch 1 has no effect when switch 2 is set for
automatic MXIbus termination; you must turn off automatic termination
if you want to manually control termination.

Configuration EEPROM
The VXI-MXI-2 has an onboard EEPROM, which stores default register
values that are loaded at power-on. The EEPROM is divided into two
halvesa factory-configuration half, and a user-configuration half. Both
halves were factory configured with the same configuration values so you
can modify the user-configurable half, while the factory-configured half
stores a back-up of the default user settings.
a. Automatic MXIbus Termination (Default)
b. Terminate MXIbus (On)
c. Do Not Terminate MXIbus (Off)
