INSTALLATION GUIDE
NI CB-37F-LP
Connector Block for 37-Pin D-Sub Devices
This installation guide describes how to install and connect signals to the
NI CB-37F-LP connector block for use with devices with a 37-pin D-Sub
connector.
Introduction
The CB-37F-LP is a connector block assembly consisting of a printed
circuit board and 40 screw terminals. The connector block assembly
connects directly to the front panel of National Instruments 37-pin D-Sub
devices, eliminating the need for an external cable. It also can be cabled
using a 37-pin cable.
The CB-37F-LP allows you to easily connect analog input, analog output,
counter/timer, and digital I/O signals to your National Instruments device.
The 40 screw terminals allow access to every pin on the connector, plus
three shield screw terminals for use with a shielded cable.
Caution
The CB-37F-LP is not designed for input voltages greater than 42 V
pk
, even if you
install a voltage divider that reduces the voltage to within the input range of the DAQ
device. Input voltages greater than 42 V
pk
can damage the CB-37F-LP, any device
connected to it, and the host computer. Overvoltage also can cause an electric shock hazard
for the operator. National Instruments is
not
liable for damage or injury resulting from such
misuse.
