Description
The SC-2060 Digital Input Module is a part of the SCXI & Legacy category, featuring part numbers 776336-00 and 776336-10. This module is designed to handle digital signals with 8 digital input channels that are optically isolated, ensuring that signals are processed safely and efficiently. It is capable of handling signals up to 400 Vrms, accommodating a wide range of applications.
The module operates on logic levels where a low signal is considered 9 V below the reference level, and a high signal is 3 V below the reference. Additionally, each input can handle a maximum current of 20 mA. In terms of power requirements, the module consumes +5 VDC at 210 mA, making it an energy-efficient choice for various digital input tasks.
One of the key advantages of the SC-2060 is that it requires no additional software for operation, simplifying setup and integration into existing systems. Connection options include a 1 26-pin male ribbon-cable I/O connector and 18 screw terminals, providing flexibility and ease of use.
Physically, this module measures 5.2 x 4.9 x 1.8 in, making it compact and easy to integrate into a range of setups. It is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0° to 70° C and can be stored in temperatures ranging from -55° to 125° C. Moreover, it can function in a wide humidity range of 5% to 90% (operating and storage, non-condensing), ensuring reliability in various environmental conditions.
Despite its obsolete status as announced by National Instruments, the SC-2060 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, offering continued support for users of this versatile digital input module.
