Description
The National Instruments PXI-4498 is a PXI Sound and Vibration Module that is part of the PXI DSA category. It is identified by part numbers 196153B-01L, 779747-01, and 779747-02. This module is designed for noise and vibration analysis, making it a crucial tool for engineers and technicians in various fields.
The PXI-4498 features a versatile signal activation system that is both simple and automated, offering two modes of operation: start trigger mode and reference shooting mode. This provides users with the flexibility to choose the operation mode that best suits their testing requirements. The trigger source for the PXI-4498 can be an analog input channel, an external digital trigger input, or the PXI trigger bus, offering compatibility with 5 V TTL/CMOS signals.
This module is equipped with two 4X InfiniBand connectors, supporting a total of 16 input channels, with eight per connector (AI0-7 and AI8-15). This allows for extensive data collection and analysis in applications requiring high channel counts.
For software support, the PXI-4498 uses the NI Sound and Vibration Assistant, along with LabVIEW analysis VIs, providing a comprehensive suite of tools for data analysis and report generation. Despite its announced obsolete status by National Instruments, the PXI-4498 is still available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to rely on this powerful module for their sound and vibration analysis needs.
