Description
The SCXI-1540 is part of the SCXI & Legacy category and carries the part number 777966-40. This module is specifically designed as an 8 channel LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) Module, capable of interfacing with Linear Variable Differential Transformers (LVDT), Rotary Variable Differential Transformers (RVDTs), and Resolvers. It accommodates both 4 and 5-wire connections for LVDTs and RVDTs.
With a remarkable scanning rate of up to 333 kS/s, the SCXI-1540 supports random scanning across channels, ensuring efficient data acquisition processes. Furthermore, it boasts an autocalibration feature that can be executed through NI-DAQ or LabVIEW VI without the need for external hardware, making it highly convenient for users. The calibration data is stored on an EEPROM located on the module itself, ensuring that calibration settings are preserved.
Configuration of the SCXI-1540 can be easily achieved using Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) or through NI-DAQ function calls, providing flexibility and ease of use. Additionally, it offers channel synchronization capabilities, allowing any quantity of channels to be synchronized to the same frequency, enhancing measurement accuracy and reliability.
Despite its Obsolete Status, the SCXI-1540 remains available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to leverage this powerful module for their LVDT, RVDT, and Resolver applications.
