PXI --> PXIe --> PXI

[HV_FB]

Hello,

under "PXI Controllers" I can only find PXIe Controllers.

Does it mean that I can use the PXIe Controllers in PXIe as well as in PXI chassis (as the old PXI-1031)?

Thank you

No.  PXIe is a different standard than PXI.  For a little while, there was a PXI hybrid standard that allowed PXI cards to work in PXIe chassis.  But there was never a way to go the other way around.  PXI itself is getting harder to find.  PXIe has pretty much replaced PXI.

The reason you see only PXIe controllers would be because all the PXI controllers are now obsolete and you cannot purchase them anymore from NI.

For any obsolete NI hardware, there are a few third-party vendors who stock up obsolete HW and sell them (apexwaves, artisantg, electrorent are some)

Thanks a lot, I suspected that (but was hoping 🙄)
