PXI controller can't detect any PXI cards

[omkara2233]

Hello All,

I am using PXI 8133 controller on PXIe-1078 chassis as shown below, with 3 PXIe and 2 PXI cards. 

For some reason NI Max only shows PXIe chassis and controller under remote system=> Devices and interface. And doesn't detect rest of the slots. Any help on how to debug this issue or direction is much appreciated.

Have you tried updating the chassis firmware?

Thanks Paul for replying back. No I didn't, let me update the chassis and I will post my findings.

I looked for NI PXIe 1078 chassis firmware in NI support, products and on google but couldn't find it. Do you know from where can I get it?

There was driver version mismatch between my host computer and PXI controller. I fixed this issue by updating NIDaq mx and NI Real Time module on PXI controller.

Hi there, Do you have any .ini file or driver for PXI1078? I tried to search online and did not get any software.
