Connecting to Resolvers
Figure 4-23 shows the connections made between a resolver and the
SCXI-1540 using the SCXI-1315 terminal block. A single resolver requires
the use of two channels. You must synchronize both channels using a wire
connection between EX+ on the master channel and SYNC on the slave
channel. Configure the slave channel for external synchronization as
described in the previous note. You can also synchronize more than two
channels used for resolvers or combinations of resolvers, LVDTs, and
RVDTs by the method described in
Figure 4-23.
