Hi Scott,
There is not a PXI Express version of the NI 7344 motion controller. So, you would have to go with a PXI or PCI bus architecture. If you decided to go with PXI, you would need either an embedded controller, such as PXI-8105, or a remote controller, such as MXI-4 kit. With an embedded controller, the PXI chassis would be stand-alone; the operating system would be within the chassis on the embedded controller. With MXI-4, you will need another computer, but the PXI modules will be attached by a PCI-PCI bridge (the MXI-4 kit) to the other computer. Another option would be the PXI-1033, which gives you both the controller and the chassis; but you would still need another computer to connect this chassis to. You would probably need a different DAQ card if you went with PXI, one in the PXI form factor. The PCI cards and computer option for the two cards might be a better solution for you. PXI would be a better option if you were considering other hardware as well. You may want to speak to your sales representative or your field sales engineer for more information. I hope this helps!
