Example 2
SCXI-1000 chassis
SCXI-1359 2-slot backplane adapter behind slots 3 and 4
SCXI-1127 (250 V, CAT II) in slot 4
SCXI-1129 (150 V, CAT I) in slot 2
The SCXI-1127 does not share the HVAB with the SCXI-1129. Therefore,
the SCXI-1127 can operate at the full rating (250 V, CAT II).
Example 3
SCXI-1000 chassis
SCXI-1359 2-slot backplane adapter behind slots 3 and 4
SCXI-1127 (250 V, CAT II) in slot 4
SCXI-1190 (30 V, CAT I) in slot 3
The SCXI-1190 does not have a HVAB connector. Therefore, the
SCXI-1127 can operate at the full rating (250 V, CAT II).
9. Program the Switch Modules
You can operate the switch module in one of the following three ways.
•
Interactively using the NI-SWITCH Soft Front Panel
•
Programming using the NI-SWITCH API
•
Programming using the NI-DAQmx API
NI-SWITCH Soft Front Panel (SFP)
The NI-SWITCH SFP is an interactive tool you use to test the basic
functionality of the switch, become familiar with its operation, and
troubleshoot your applications. All NI switches can be operated with
the NI-SWITCH SFP.
You can launch the NI-SWITCH SFP from
Program Files»National
Instruments»NI-SWITCH»NI-SWITCH Soft Front Panel
.
NI-SWITCH API
The NI-SWITCH API includes a set of operations and attributes that use all
the functionality of the switch, including configuration, control, and other
module-specific functions. All NI switches can be programmed with
NI-SWITCH.
