Description
The NI-9361 is a component of the C Series Digital I/O category, bearing the part number 783407-01. This module is specifically designed for counter input applications, featuring 8 differential counter input channels. It stands out due to its compatibility with CompactDAQ systems, offering a remarkable capability of providing up to 64 counters for every 8 slots it occupies.
With a 32-bit resolution, the NI-9361 excels in a variety of counter measurements including edge counting, pulse width, period, frequency, encoder position, and speed. This versatility is further enhanced by its encoder support, which includes quadrature encoding and compatibility with incremental encoders that have a two-pulse output, along with an optional Z index for reloading.
Another notable feature is its velocity measurement support, although this functionality is specifically tailored for CompactRIO systems only. The module allows for a flexible channel configuration, permitting users to select between differential or single-ended mode. Furthermore, it accommodates a programmable voltage threshold and an internal pull-up resistor option, making it a highly adaptable solution for various digital I/O applications.
