VXI Resource Manager Overview
This section contains information specific to the Windows product.
The VXI Resource Manager is a software utility that initializes and prepares a VXI system for use.
If your system includes an E8491 IEEE-1394 PC Link to VXI interface, you can use the VXI Resource Manager to determine whether your system is properly configured. The VXI Resource Manager runs when any of the following conditions occurs:
- You start
Connection Expert (see Using the VXI Resource Manager for instructions)
- You apply or cycle
VXI mainframe power
- You press the E8491
Reset button
- You reboot your PC
In VXI systems with multiple E8491 interfaces, you can turn off individual mainframes without affecting other mainframes in the system. When a mainframe is turned on, the VXI Resource Manager reconfigures that mainframe.
