If you are using a GPIB-VXI to access your VXI chassis, see How do I communicate with my GPIB-VXI/VXI devices.

If you are using an external or embedded VXI controller to access the VXI bus, you must have NI-VXI correctly installed on your system. The configuration utility uses the NI-VXI Resman utility to detect and configure your VXI devices. If Resman reports an error, your system may not be configured correctly.

If you have a device that should be detected, make sure that the chassis is turned on and that the instrument appears to be functioning. Check the MAX configuration view for warning or error messages. Resource conflicts between devices can cause Resman to fail. If you are using MXI-2 or the VXI-8340 series, make sure that the cable is securely attached on all ends, and (for MXI-2) that the correct end of the cable is plugged into your chassis. Verify this by checking that the label on the MXI-2 cable is closest to the MXI bus system controller.

Also, Resman cannot detect VME devices. If your system contains VME devices, you need to add these to the system manually.
