The National Instruments part number 779502-01, also known as the PCIe-8362 Device for PXI Remote Control, is a sophisticated solution designed for streamlined remote management of PXI systems via a PCI Express (PCIe) interface. This high-performance device enhances data integration and communication between PXI chassis and host computers, essential for executing a diverse range of test and measurement applications. Compactly sized at 9.93 cm x 7.11 cm (3.91 x 2.8 inches) and weighing only 0.05 kg (0.12 pounds), the PCIe-8362 is conveniently installed in a standard-height PCI Express slot, making it compatible with most contemporary computer systems. It supports a maximum cable length of 7 meters and adheres to the PCI Express Specification, Revision 1.0a, ensuring reliable operation across various PCIe-based environments.

With low power consumption, the PCIe-8362 operates on a +3.3 VAUX rail that averages 10 mA and peaks at 50 mA, while the +3.3 V rail averages 580 mA and can reach up to 1.04 A. The device does not utilize the +12 V rail, contributing to its efficient power profile. The PCIe-8362 is designed to function reliably within a temperature range of 0 degrees Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius and can operate at altitudes of up to 2,000 meters. Its environmental tolerance extends to operating relative humidity of 10% to 90% (non-condensing) and storage conditions from -40 degrees Celsius to 70 degrees Celsius with 5% to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).

Safety and compliance are paramount for the PCIe-8362, which meets the IEC 61010-1, EN 61010-1, UL 61010-1, and CSA 61010-1 standards for information technology equipment. Additionally, it adheres to rigorous electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, including EN 61326-1 (IEC 61326-1), EN 55011, and ICES-001, ensuring that it is suitable for laboratory and industrial environments.
