Description
The PXI-4462 is a high-performance PXI Dynamic Signal Analyzer (DSA) designed and manufactured by National Instruments. It comes with part numbers 779688-01 and 779131-01. This device falls under the category of PXI DSA, emphasizing its specialization in dynamic signal analysis within the PXI platform.
Featuring a 24-bit resolution, the PXI-4462 is capable of delivering high-precision measurements. It supports a sample rate of up to 204.8 kS/s, making it suitable for a wide range of high-speed measurement applications. The device is configured with a 4-channel dynamic signal acquisition system, which allows for simultaneous measurement across multiple channels.
One of the key features of the PXI-4462 is its 6 settings for input range configuration, providing users with flexible gain setting options to meet various measurement requirements. Additionally, it includes a high-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 3.4 Hz, which is ideal for eliminating low-frequency noise and drift in signal measurements.
The terminal configurations for analog input include both Differential and Pseudo-differential options, offering versatility in connection types for different measurement scenarios. The analog overload point at 0 dB gain is specified at 10.7 Vpk, ensuring robust performance even in high-voltage conditions.
Software compatibility is extensive, with support for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Microsoft Visual C++, Microsoft Visual Basic, Borland C++, and Microsoft .NET. This makes the PXI-4462 a versatile tool that can be integrated into a wide range of software environments for comprehensive data analysis and system control.
For device setup and configuration, the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) serves as the primary configuration tool, simplifying the process of getting the device up and running. Despite its announced obsolete status, the PXI-4462 remains a valuable tool for dynamic signal analysis, supported by calibration availability through Apex Waves with NIST accredited calibrations or basic in-house calibration services, ensuring reliable and accurate measurements
