section.
Device Specific Information
Note
For general SCC module installation and signal connection information, and
information about the SC-2350 carrier, refer to the
SCC Quick Start Guide
, available for
download at
ni.com/manuals
.
Installing the Module
Caution
Refer to the
Read Me First: Safety and Radio-Frequency Interference
document
before removing equipment covers or connecting/disconnecting any signal wires.
You can plug the SCC-A10 into any analog input socket on the SC-2345.
The socket you choose determines which E Series DAQ device channels
receive the SCC-A10 signals, as explained in the
SCC Quick Start Guide
.
For single-stage input conditioning, plug the SCC-A10 into any socket
J(
X
+
1), where
X
is 0 to 7, and connect the input-signal wires to the module
as described in the
SCC Quick Start Guide
.
If you use the SCC-A10 in a dual-stage configuration, the SCC-A10
must
be the first-stage module. Plug it into any socket J(
X
+
9) and plug the
second-stage SCC into socket J(
X
+
1), where
X
is 0 to 7. Connect the
input-signal wires to the SCC-A10 as described in the
SCC Quick Start
Guide
. The SC-2345 connects the output signals of the SCC-A10 to the
inputs of the second-stage SCC. An example of dual-stage conditioning is
an SCC-A10 followed by a lowpass filter module (SCC-LP
XX
).
Sockets J9 to J16 are also available for digital input/output (DIO)
conditioning or control. Refer to the
SC-2345/2350 User Manual
for more
information about configuring, connecting, and installing SCC modules.
