The National Instruments PXI-1020 is a PXI chassis with an integrated LCD display. Controller selection and configuration are important because support for the internal display and pointing-device connections varies by controller.
Core content remains expanded and crawlable.
The PXI-1020 combines a PXI chassis with an internal LCD. NI provides specific instructions for configuring PXI-8150B and PXI-8170 series controllers to use the chassis display and internal mouse connection.
Treat the chassis, embedded controller, and software installation as a matched legacy system. NI's controller compatibility matrix identifies restrictions on internal peripheral connections and physical fit, while its PXI Platform Services release history records removal of PXI-1020 support in version 3.2.2.

NI's PXI-8170 setup instructions specify setting the LCD display resolution to 640 × 480.
No. NI notes that the NI 8174, NI 8184, and NI 8185 lack the internal connections required for the chassis display and peripherals, even though they can operate and communicate with instruments in the chassis. The same matrix states that NI 8195 and NI 8196 controllers do not physically fit.
NI's release history lists PXI-1020 chassis support as removed in PXI Platform Services 3.2.2. Verify the complete legacy software environment rather than assuming a later release supports this chassis.
