34938A 28-channel 5-amp Form A 34939A 64-Channel High-Density Form A • The 34937A provides independent control of 32 relays, including: • Twenty- eight Form C relays, each rated for 1 A at 60 W per channel • Four Form A (SPST) relays, each rated for 5 A at 150 W per channel.
Hardware Power-Fail Jumper A hardware jumper on the 34937A and 34938A modules allows you to define the power- failure states for the modules’ 5 A latching relays. Depending on the position of the jumper, the 5 A relays will either open or maintain state when system power failure occurs.

After a five- to ten- second delay, remove the sheet metal cover from the module and move the position of the jumper mounted on the module. See the figure below for the jumper’s location on the module. Agilent 34937A-34939A General Purpose Switch Modules User’s Guide...
4. If this command is sent to a module other than the 34937A or 34938A, “NONE” is returned (no error is generated). In particular, the position of the power- fail jumper on the 34939A module cannot be queried using this commmand.
