Features
Compatibility
with Racal
Instruments 1260-
Series
Functionally, it is identical to the 1260-100 but currently without an
Option-01T. It only accepts the X-series Adapt-a-Switch plug-in
cards. The 1260-100X Adapt-a-Switch Carrier is controlled by the
same Option-01T controller installed in another carrier in the same
group as conventional Racal Instruments 1260-Series switch
modules. A single Option-01T Switch Controller Module may
control up to twelve switch modules or plug-ins. This may include
a combination of 1260-Series and Adapt-a-Switch plug-ins.
See
Chapter 2: Getting Started
for instructions on combining
1260-Series modules and Adapt-a-Switch plug-ins in the same
VXIbus chassis.
