Description
The NI SCXI-1377 Terminal Block, with part number 778716-01, is a Front-Mounting Terminal Block designed to be compatible with the SCXI-1130 Switch Module. It allows for various configurations such as 256×1 1-wire MUX, 128×1 2-wire MUX, and 64×1 4-wire MUX, building upon the 16×1 building blocks of the SCXI-1130 Switch Module. This terminal block features both spring terminals and screw terminals for secure connections.
It is recommended to use 28 AWG wire, either ribbon or discrete, with this terminal block. The installation process requires tools such as a 1/8 inch flathead screwdriver, a Philips screwdriver, a wire cutter, and a wire insulation stripper. The design includes a strain-relief assembly with two screws to ensure wires are held securely in place. For optimal connection, wire insulation should be stripped to a length of 7 mm or less.
