Connection Lost PXI 8106/8108

Hello,

 

I'm using PXI system for running several modules (Motion, digitizers, DAQ Etc.).

My system is part of a SA TCP/IP network, with a static IP address.

The OS of the PXI is phar lap ets.

My host is LV2013SP1, Windows7.

 

I get a connection lost error to my PXI every few minutes. I tried other controller (8108) and other connection port, unsuccessfully.

 

Any Idea anyone?

 

Thanks,

 

Yakir

Hello yakir, 

 

Are you getting an error message?

 

If so, could you please share with us the error code and maybe a screenshot of the error message. 

 

We would appreciate that information. 

 

Regards

 

Ernesto.

Hi Ernesto,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Didn't aim to mislead. I do not get an error message, but 2 indications for my case:

 

  1. When I work in a project I get a connection lost message (Connection to the PXI machine has lost)
  2. I ran a constant ping function in a cmd window, and after few minutes I get a timeout message for several seconds, and then it's getting a reply again.

Sorry for not able uploading screenshots of my case.

 

Thanks,

 

Yakir

Hello yakir, 

 

Are you able to see your pxi chassis on NI-MAX? By the way which PXI chassis are you using to connect the controllers?

 

In case you are not able to see the chassis on NI-MAX please try the following:

 

PXI Chassis Does Not Appear in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX)
