Chapter 3
Signal Connections
This chapter describes the SCXI-1162HV signal connections via the front and rear connectors,
and has specifications and connection instructions for the SCXI-1162HV connector signals.
The following warnings contain important safety information concerning hazardous voltages.
Warning:
Connections that exceed any of the maximum ratings of input signals on the
SCXI-1162HV can damage the SCXI-1162HV board and the SCXIbus.
Maximum input ratings for each signal are given in this chapter under the
discussion of that signal. National Instruments is not liable for any damages
resulting from signal connections that exceed these ratings.
K
EEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
. Do not remove equipment covers or shields
unless you are trained to do so. If signal wires are connected to the module or
terminal block, dangerous voltages may exist even when the equipment is
turned off. To avoid dangerous electrical shock, do not perform procedures
involving cover or shield removal unless you are qualified to do so.
D
O NOT OPERATE DAMAGED EQUIPMENT
. The safety protection features built
into this module can become impaired if the module becomes damaged in any
way. If it is damaged, turn the module off and do not use until service-trained
personnel can check its safety. If necessary, return the module to National
Instruments for service and repair to ensure that its safety is not compromised.
D
O NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY EQUIPMENT
. Because of the danger of
introducing additional hazards, do not install unauthorized parts or modify the
module. Return the module to National Instruments for service and repair to
ensure that its safety features are not compromised.
When using the terminal block with high common-mode voltages, you
MUST
insulate your signal wires appropriately. National Instruments is
NOT
liable for
any damages or injuries resulting from inadequate signal wire insulation.
When connecting or disconnecting signal lines to the SCXI-1326 terminal block
screw terminals, make sure the lines are powered off to prevent shock hazard.
