I run a PCI-6025E in a MATLAB xPC target machine. It stopped working, so I plugged the PCI card into a Windows box to run NI diagnostics and got the below output. Basically I want to know if NI can repair this for a reasonable cost or if I should just get a new one.
Thanks in advance,
David

If you card is under warranty, NI repairs are fairly reasonable. Otherwise I'm not sure. You'd have to call them.

I doubt a 6025E is still under warrenty. They're obsolete but still available and cost more than newer cards with better features. You should run the numbers and see if changing your system to use an X or M series card is worth it in the long run. We're in the same boat at my place, about a dozen 6025E that are slowly dropping out.

It wouldn't be too difficult to replace the 82C55 IC by yourself. We have done this several times in these old "6025E days".
