Hello,

The PXI-1011 chassis has a sealed, high-voltage backplane on the SCXI side. Therefore, you cannot connect a DAQ card directly to the SCXI modules as you normally would for parallel mode operation. If you need to use parallel mode, I recommend that you use one of our PXI-1010, SCXI-1000, or SCXI-1001 chassis.
