Hey sukhiray,

In your system, the PXI-8331 will connect the chassis to your computer. It is a MXI-4 Kit for Remote PC Control of PXI chassis. The MXI-4 is a software transparent link that requires no programming. You can learn more about connecting and using the PXI-8331 from the PXI-8331 Product Manual.

To connect to your photo detector, from the pieces of your system you have provided you would connect that to your PXI-6221, which provides the inputs for your Data Aquisition. For more information on how to use the PXI-6221, please reference the PXI-6221 Product Manual. Please reference the DAQ Getting Started Guide to learn more about the programming.

Hope this is able to help.

Thanks
