Description
The SCXI-1000, bearing part numbers 776570-01, 776570-02, 776570-03, 776570-04, 776570-05, 776570-06, 776570-07, 778570-01, 778570-04, 776570-09, 776570-10, is a durable, low-noise chassis designed for SCXI modules. This chassis is versatile, offering four slots for module installation but has the capability to connect up to eight SCXI 1000 chassis together for expanded functionality.
It supports various power options, including 100, 120, 220, and 240 VAC, ensuring compatibility across different regions and power supplies. The operating voltage can be determined by the voltage tumbler located in the power entry module, providing convenience and flexibility in usage. In terms of functionality, the SCXI-1000 operates in two modes: Multiplexed Mode, where Analog Input (AI) channels are multiplexed into one module output, and Parallel Mode, which requires a separate E/M Series DAQ device for every module, offering flexibility based on the needs of the application.
For addressing, it allows for 32 distinct addresses via front panel switches, ensuring ease of configuration and identification within complex setups. Despite its capabilities, the chassis remains compact and manageable, weighing just 10 oz and measuring 9.8 x 7.7 x 7.0 inches in dimensions. Each slot within the chassis has a power dissipation of 7 W, and the unit is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0 to 50 °C, with a storage temperature range of –20 to 70 °C, ensuring reliability in various environments.
Despite its obsolete status, announced by National Instruments, the SCXI-1000 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, providing ongoing support for users of this robust and versatile chassis system.
