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

    To avoid a shock hazard, do not perform procedures involving cover or shield removal unless you are qualified to do so and disconnect all field power prior to removing covers or shields. SCXI-1328 Installation Guide www.ni.com...
  • Page 3 If the device is damaged, turn the device off and do not use until service-trained personnel can check its safety. If necessary, return the device to National Instruments for service and repair to ensure that its safety is not compromised.
  • Page 4: Temperature Sensor Output And Accuracy

    Temperature Sensor Output and Accuracy The SCXI-1328 temperature sensor outputs 1.91 to 0.58 V from 0 to 55 °C and has an accuracy of ±0.5 °C over the 15 to 35 °C range and ±0.9 °C over the 0 to 15 °C and 35 to 55 °C ranges National Instruments software can convert a thermistor voltage to the thermistor temperature for the circuit diagram shown later in this guide.
  • Page 5: Signal Connection

    When connecting your signals to the SCXI-1328, follow the labeling on the SCXI-1328 for the appropriate module, as indicated in Figure 2. To connect the signal to the terminal block, perform the following steps, referring to Figures 1 and 2 as necessary: Unscrew the top cover screws and remove the cover.
