Description
The NI SCXI-1379 Terminal Block, with Part Number 778732-01, is designed to be used with the SCXI-1130 Switch Module, enabling the configuration of an 8×32, 1-wire matrix.
This terminal block employs screw terminals for efficient signal linking and includes trigger input and output connections, facilitating the handling of complex switching tasks.
Enhancing its functionality, the NI SCXI-1379 supports expansion through the use of National Instruments matrix expansion plugs, allowing for row expansion via column linking without the need for external wiring, streamlining setup and maintenance.
To utilize the SCXI-1379 Terminal Block, several tools and accessories are required, including a matrix expansion plug, a matrix expansion cable, an SCXI chassis, an SCXI-1130 module, a wire insulation stripper, a wire cutter, a Philips screwdriver, and a 1/8 inch flathead screwdriver.
For signal connections, National Instruments recommends using 28 AWG wire, which can be either ribbon or discrete, to ensure reliable and efficient signal transmission.
The terminal block features designated column and row screw terminals as well as expansion connectors, which provide a secure method for connecting leads.
Furthermore, a strain relief bar is included to ensure that leads are securely fastened before the terminal block cover is placed, safeguarding the integrity of the connections.
