how can i configure my vme device?

[cws6805]

"I've got a VME-MXI-2 interface and a VME card connected to a VXI crate. I'm using the ni-vxi driver to access the VME cards with Labview in the crate. Using T&M Explorer, I have added this device and mapped it to A16 address space 0x0 to 0x03F.but The card has a switch that is set for "Base Address Select" =3800H.I am right for configuration it,isn't it?

The User Manual of your VME device will tell you what are the valid parameters for your device. The configuration in T&M Explorer or in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) is completely manual.
You need to tell T&M or MAX all the information of your board, as explained in exercise 2 in the PDF document attached to the following below:
Using MAX to Configure VXI/VME Devices.

It seems you need to add your card in the A16 space starting at 0x3800, instead of 0x0000. Otherwise, can you change the state of the "Base Address" switch so it corresponds to 0x0000?

Hope this helps,
