BNC-2110 Installation Guide

The BNC-2110 is compatible with all E Series, S Series, and waveform 
generation Multifunction DAQ devices. Some of the connectors on this 
accessory may have a different function depending on the device to which 
it is connected.

Table 2 describes the BNC connectors on the front panel of the BNC-2110. 
Refer to the Connecting Digital/Timing I/O section for terminal block 
connector descriptions.

 

For more detailed information about how the accessory terminals 
correspond one-to-one to the Multifunction DAQ device, refer to the I/O 
Connector Pinouts Table in the 

E Series Help

 at 

ni.com/manuals

.

Connecting Analog Inputs (E Series and S Series Devices Only)

The BNC-2110 has BNC connectors for up to eight differential analog 
input channels. These connectors are labeled AI <0..7>. The number of 
connectors you use depends on your DAQ device and your application.
