This guide describes how to install and use the SCXI-1328 high-accuracy
isothermal terminal block with the SCXI-1120, SCXI-1120D, and
SCXI-1121 modules.
The SCXI-1328 high-accuracy isothermal terminal block consists of a
shielded board with screw terminals to connect to the SCXI module input
connector. The SCXI-1328 has a high-precision thermistor and an
aluminum isothermal plate to minimize the temperature gradients across
the screw terminals when you measure thermocouples.
The terminal block has 18 screw terminals for easy connection. One pair of
screw terminals connects to the SCXI module chassis ground. With the
SCXI-1120/D or SCXI-1125, the remaining eight pairs of screw terminals
are for signal connection to the eight module inputs. With the SCXI-1121,
four pairs of screw terminals are for the four module inputs and four pairs
are for the module excitation channels.
To set up and use your SCXI-1322 terminal block, you need the following
