Description
The National Instruments SCXI-1200 Data Acquisition and Control Module, with part number 182415-01B, falls under the category of SCXI & Legacy. This model boasts a 12-bit resolution and provides flexibility in input configurations, offering 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog input channels. It supports various analog input modes, including Referenced (RSE), Non-Referenced (NRSE), and Differential (DIFF), to accommodate different signal types. The analog input range is versatile, ranging from 0 V to 10 V (unipolar) and -5 V to +5 V (bipolar), ensuring compatibility with a wide array of sensors.
In addition to its analog input capabilities, the module features 2 single-ended analog output channels and 32 digital I/O channels that are TTL compatible, enhancing its utility in various data acquisition and control tasks. It also offers robust protection against overload, with a tolerance of ±42 V when powered on and ±15 V when powered off, safeguarding the module from potential damage due to unexpected voltage spikes.
Prior to calibration, the offset error can reach up to ±50 mV (max), but after calibration, this is significantly reduced to ±0.2 mV (max). Similarly, the gain error is improved from ±1% before calibration to an impressive ±0.004% of reading after calibration, demonstrating the module’s high accuracy and reliability. The voltage output range is 0 to +10V, ±5V, catering to a broad spectrum of application requirements.
The SCXI-1200 is compatible with NI-DAQmx driver software, facilitating easy integration and programming. For connectivity, it is equipped with a 50-pin male ribbon-cable connector on the front and a 25-pin female centronics type B connector on the rear, providing versatile and reliable physical interface options for system integration.
