    Italic text in this font denotes text that is a placeholder for a word or value monospace italic that you must supply. What You Need to Get Started To set up and use the TBX-1328, you need the following items: ❑ TBX-1328 high-accuracy isothermal terminal block ❑...
  • Page 4: Connecting The Signals

    Refer to the Read Me First: Safety and Radio-Frequency Interference document before removing equipment covers or connecting or disconnecting any signal wires. To connect the field signals to the TBX-1328 for use with the SCXI-1120 or SCXI-1121, follow the labeling on the TBX-1328 indicated along with the appropriate SCXI module type column as shown in Figure 1.
  • Page 5 This terminal block does not provide strain relief for field signal wires. Add strain relief, insulation, and padding for the wires, if necessary. Replace the TBX-1328 terminal block cover and tighten the captive cover screws. The signal connection is now complete.
  • Page 6: Installing The Terminal Block And Cable Assembly

    Connecting the Signals section, you can install the terminal block. Complete the following steps to mount the SH32-32-A cable assembly and connect the TBX-1328 to the SCXI module while referring to Figures 2 through 4 as needed. Power off the SCXI chassis.
  • Page 7 Connect one end of the cable assembly to the SCXI module front connector and secure the SH32-32-A cable by tightening both backshell mounting screws. Connect the other end of the cable assembly to the TBX-1328 terminal block connector and secure the SH32-32-A cable by tightening both backshell mounting screws.
  • Page 8: Rack Mounting

    Assembly section, you can mount the TBX assembly in the rack. If you are using the National Instruments TBX Rack-Mount Assembly, refer to the TBX Rack-Mount Installation Guide for instructions. If you are not using this rack-mount assembly, complete the following steps to mount the TBX assembly directly onto the DIN rail: Snap the TBX terminal block onto the DIN rail with a firm push.

    The temperature-sensor circuitry accuracy includes manufacturing tolerances in all component values, effects caused by component-value temperature drift, voltage-divider loading, and thermistor self-heating. In instrumentation terminology, DC coupling means that both DC and AC signals are passed. TBX-1328 Installation Guide ni.com...

    SCXI-1102. Strain Measurement Considerations When you use the SCXI-1121 with the TBX-1328 to measure strain, a small amount of voltage drop develops across the excitation wires in the SH32-32-A cable. This voltage drop is due to the wire resistance and the current flow in these leads when a strain gauge is connected at the TBX-1328 across the excitation outputs provided on the SCXI-1121.

  • Page 17 Now calculate the voltage drop across the field signal wires you are connecting to the TBX-1328. Perform similar calculations for the field wires as you did for the cable. Resistance can vary depending on the cable and field wires. Add this error amount to the voltage drop across the SH32-32-A cable to get a total voltage drop.
