Description
The National Instruments SCXI-1200 Data Acquisition and Control Module, part number 182415-01, falls under the category of SCXI & Legacy. This module is designed to offer a robust solution for data acquisition and control tasks, featuring a 12-bit resolution for precise measurements.
It supports 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog input channels, providing flexibility in connecting various types of sensors. The supported input modes include Referenced Single-Ended (RSE), Non-Referenced Single-Ended (NRSE), and Differential (DIFF), catering to a wide range of application requirements. Additionally, the module is equipped with 2 single-ended analog output channels for tasks requiring analog output capabilities.
The analog input range of this module is quite versatile, supporting both unipolar (0 V to 10 V) and bipolar (-5 V to +5 V) configurations, which enhances its adaptability to different signal types. For applications requiring digital communication or signaling, the SCXI-1200 provides 32 TTL compatible digital I/O channels, ensuring ample connectivity for complex setups.
Protection against overload is paramount in preventing damage to the module and connected devices. The SCXI-1200 is designed with an overload protection of ±42 V when powered on and ±15 V when powered off, offering peace of mind in various operating conditions. Before and after calibration, the offset error is maintained at ±50 mV (max before) and ±0.2 mV (max after), respectively, ensuring accuracy in measurements. Similarly, the gain error is controlled at ±1% before calibration and is significantly reduced to ±0.004% after calibration, indicating the module’s high precision.
Lastly, the voltage output range of this module is set to 0 to +10 V, providing a wide range for various output requirements. With these specifications, the National Instruments SCXI-1200 stands out as a comprehensive solution for data acquisition and control applications, combining versatility, accuracy, and reliability.
