AUX 0 Connector
Note
The AUX 0 connector accepts a standard, third-party HDMI
but the AUX 0 port is not an HDMI interface and the specified performance of the
AUX 0 connector is not guaranteed if a third-party HDMI cable is used. Use NI
cable assembly SHH19-MH19-AUX for all AUX 0 connections. Do not connect the
AUX 0 port on the PXIe-5423 to the HDMI port of another device. NI is not liable
for any damage resulting from such signal connections.
Refer to the following figure and table for information about the PXIe-5423 AUX 0 connector

Phase-locked loop (PLL) unlocked: The PXIe-5423 has detected an
unlocked condition on a previously locked PLL. A PLL that is
unlocked while in reset does not show an error.
The PXIe-5423 has powered down because the internal temperature
exceeded the maximum limit. The over-temperature condition must
be corrected and the hardware reset. To reset the hardware, call
niFgen Reset Device or niFgen_ResetDevice.
