To connect your SC-2056 to the signal conditioning accessories, use a type
NB7, 26-pin ribbon cable. This cable connects the SC-2056 to any of the
SC-206X Series boards or to the 5B Series backplane. An 8-channel SSR
Series backplane with a 26-conductor cable is also available for connection
to the SC-2056 board. For instructions on making these connections to the
proper signal conditioning accessories, refer to
in
.
Connectors
The SC-2056 has two 50-pin ribbon cable connectors (for use with the
R1005050 cable), and a 100-pin connector (for use with the SH100100 or
SH96-100 cable) that are used to connect the DAQ device to the SC-2056.
You can use either of these connectors to attach the SC-2056 to the DAQ
device via a cable. There are also four other 50-pin ribbon cable connectors
that are used to connect to other 50-pin accessories. These four connectors
have a standard MIO pin connector with analog channels 0–15, 16–31,
32–47, and 48–63 available for the 50-pin accessories.
Note
Because the four connectors’ digital signals are available, it is possible to double
drive these signals; that is, you can connect more than one digital output to the
same digital input of the DAQ device, which can damage the digital output source.
The SC-2056 also has six 26-pin ribbon cable connectors that you can use
to connect to the signal conditioning accessories. The five analog port
connectors have pin assignments that are compatible with the 5B Series of
analog signal conditioning modules. The digital port connector is
compatible with the SC-206X Series digital signal conditioners as well as
with the 8-channel SSR Series solid-state relay board.
