Description
The National Instruments SCXI-1200 Data Acquisition and Control Module, identified by its part number 182415C-01, falls under the category of SCXI & Legacy. This module is designed to facilitate a multitude of data acquisition and control tasks.
Featuring a 12-bit resolution, the SCXI-1200 offers versatile input and output options. It supports 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog input channels, allowing for a wide range of sensor types and signals to be accommodated. In addition, there are 2 single-ended analog output channels available for controlling external devices or for signal generation purposes. The module also includes 32 TTL compatible digital I/O channels, enhancing its utility in various applications requiring digital logic control or monitoring.
The input modes supported by the SCXI-1200 are comprehensive, including Referenced Single-Ended (RSE), Non-Referenced Single-Ended (NRSE), and Differential (DIFF). These options provide flexibility in connecting and configuring sensors or signals based on the specific requirements of an application. The analog input range of the module is quite accommodating, with a unipolar range of 0 V to 10 V and a bipolar range of -5 V to +5 V, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of input signals.
An important feature of the SCXI-1200 is its robust overload protection. The module can withstand up to ±42 V when powered on and ±15 V when powered off, protecting it against unexpected voltage spikes or incorrect wiring configurations. This feature enhances the durability and reliability of the module in demanding environments.
Before and after calibration, the offset and gain errors are significantly improved, demonstrating the module’s precision and accuracy. Initially, the offset error is within ±50 mV, but after calibration, it is reduced to ±0.2 mV. Similarly, the gain error is initially within ±1%, but after calibration, it narrows down to a mere ±0.004%.
