The National Instruments PXI-1056 3U/6U Dual Stack Chassis for PXI is a 3U/6U dual-stack chassis that accommodates a 4-slot controller and combinations of 6U and 3U modules, from up to seven 6U modules and three 3U modules to a total of seventeen 3U modules. A 6U module is twice the height of a 3U module, and the PXI-1056 dual stacks 3U modules sideways in the chassis. It accepts all National Instruments PXI embedded and remote controllers, including those that have the ability to run Windows or LabVIEW Real-Time OSs. The chassis is designed for applications where custom 6U modules or high-end RF modules, available in 6U format, need to be used in a single system with 3U modules commercially available from multiple vendors.
