Expansion
One Model 7711/7712 configuration is a dual (2 bank) 1
×
4 multiplexer. A single Model 7711/7712 module can also be
configured as a 4
×
4 blocking matrix. The 7711/7712 can be combined with additional modules to further expand its
multiplexing and matrix switching capabilities (specifications may degrade when the Model 7711/7712 is used in multiple
module configurations). Refer to
Table 1
for possible expansion information. Examples of multiplexer and blocking matrix
expansion follow
Table 1
.
NOTE
The commands in this section are formatted as follows: Command (@Model 27xx Slot #,
Channel #)
Multiplexer examples
NOTE
To minimize noise within the system, terminate unused channels with 50
Ω
loads. If 50
Ω
loads are
not available, terminating unused connectors with a cable may also reduce noise within the
system.
Figure 2
shows how to create a 1
×
8 SP8T MUX (single-pole eight-throw multiplex) using two Model 7711 cards. Channels 1
and 2 are connected to OUT A and OUT B of the second card in slot two. Terminate unused channels (in the example, channels
3 and 4 on the Model 7712 in slot one) with a 50
Ω
load.
Figure 3
shows how to create a 1
×
12 MUX using two Model 7711 cards.
NOTE
Channels 3 and 4 (of 7711 in slot 1) may also be connected to other banks that will create a 1
×
12
multiplexer (or a 1
×
16 multiplexer). See
Figure 4
for a 1
×
12 example. The following is a list of
sample commands needed to operate the 1
×
8 multiplexer.
NOTE
The command “ROUTe:MULTiple:CLOSe (@<channel list>)” closes one channel per bank (two
banks per Model 7711/7712 module), and opens all other channels within the same bank.
