  • Page 8: Wiring For High-Vibration Applications

    Wiring for High-Vibration Applications If an application is subject to high vibration, National Instruments recommends that you either use ferrules to terminate wires to the detachable screw-terminal connector or use the NI 9939 backshell kit to protect the connections. Refer to Figure 2 for an illustration.

  • Page 10: Protecting Inductive Loads

    When you write an ON command to a channel, the SSR is closed and the terminal that is connected to the load allows current to flow or allows voltage to be applied to the load. When you write an OFF command to a channel, the switch opens, disconnecting the circuit so no current flows and no voltage is applied to the load.
