Swap a PXI-8423 for a PXI-8431 (serial port cards)

Can a PXI-8431 (DMA, high performance) be put in place of a PXI-8423 (IRQ, standard performance) without any settings / software changes? I mainly concerned about the DMA, that there's a checkbox hidden somewhere to allow DMA transfer. (?)
Thanks!
Richard

Hello Richard,

You should be able to swap them without any configuration changes.  The DMA and IRQ transfers are handled by the driver.  Have a great evening.

Great. MAX recognized the card instantly and the instrument works as if no card swapping took place.
Thanks!
Richard
