Safe PXI-6511 operation

[ABarnes93]

I was wondering about disconnecting cables to my PXI-6511 cards while my NI
chassis is powered on? 
 
Conditions are as follows:
   There are no other power sources present once my rack has been powered down.
   The NI chassis is still powered on and running.

So would it be safe to disconnect the SH-100-100 F cable from the SCB-100 box?

Thanks for your help it is much appreciated.

Hey ABarnes93,

Yes, as long as you are only unplugging the cord from the card itself, you will be fine.  It should be noted that PXI is NOT hot swappable, so removing the card itself is not recommended.
