Description
The National Instruments SCXI-1200 Data Acquisition and Control Module, part number 776783-00, falls under the SCXI & Legacy category. This module is designed to provide efficient and precise data acquisition and control functionalities.
With a 12-bit resolution, the SCXI-1200 offers flexible input configurations, supporting 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog input channels. Users have the option to choose from Referenced (RSE), Non-Referenced (NRSE), and Differential (DIFF) input modes to suit various application needs.
In addition to its analog input capabilities, the module features 2 single-ended analog output channels. The analog input voltage range is quite versatile, accommodating both 0 V to 10 V (unipolar) and -5 V to +5 V (bipolar) ranges, which enables a wide variety of signal types to be processed.
For digital interfacing, it is equipped with 32 TTL compatible digital I/O channels, enhancing its utility in various control and data acquisition scenarios. The SCXI-1200 also comes with robust overload protection, safeguarding the module with ±42 V protection when powered on and ±15 V when powered off, ensuring durability and longevity of the device.
Before calibration, the offset error can be up to ±50 mV (max), but after calibration, this is significantly reduced to ±0.2 mV (max). Similarly, the gain error sees improvement through calibration, underscoring the module’s high precision capabilities.
