slot. Of these two slots, the left-most slot must be one of the following PXI Express slots:

PXI Express Peripheral Slot—a PXI Express slot marked with a solid circle 

containing the slot number.
PXI Express Hybrid Peripheral Slot—a PXI Express hybrid slot marked with the 

letter “H” and a solid circle containing the slot number.
PXI Express System Timing Slot—a PXI Express timing slot marked with a 

square surrounding a solid circle containing the slot number.

7. Remove the filler panels covering the selected slots.
