How to Interface Ni VME-MXi2 for PCI board kit with Zygo Measurement Baord 2401?

I am working on Double frequency interferometer. I am using  Zygo mesurement board 2401.

 

The VME chassis I am using for this experiment is not from Zygo.

 

They use NI VME-Mxi-2  for PCi board kit for hardware and software interface.

 

So how I can interface  the zygo measurement board 2401 with NI VME-MXI-2 for PCI kit  and see the output in lab view.

 

I would appreciate if any one can help me in this regards.

 Hello Undy,

 

The NI VME-MXI-2 merely creates a communication link between the host computer and the VME system. Communication to VME systems can be done with NI-VISA or a hardware driver that was created by the manufacture. If you decide to use NI-VISA for communication, you will need documentation on the command set for the Zygo 2401 board.
