USER GUIDE
SCC-FT01 Feedthrough Module
Conventions
<>
»
bold
The SCC-FT01 is a feedthrough module that connects directly to the
analog input (AI) and analog output (AO) channels of a data acquisition
(DAQ) device. You can use the breadboard area of the SCC-FT01 to
develop custom signal-conditioning circuitry that can connect to and
condition any of the analog, digital (P0.), and general-purpose
counter/timer (CTR) channels of E Series DAQ devices.
The following conventions are used in this guide:
Angle brackets that contain numbers separated by an ellipsis represent
a range of values associated with a bit or signal name—for example,
AI <0..7>.
The » symbol leads you through nested menu items and dialog box options
to a final action. The sequence File»Page Setup»Options directs you to
pull down the File menu, select the Page Setup item, and select Options
from the last dialog box.
This icon denotes a note, which alerts you to important information.
This icon denotes a caution, which advises you of precautions to take to
avoid injury, data loss, or a system crash. When this symbol is marked on
the product, refer to the Read Me First: Safety and Radio-Frequency
Interference document, shipped with the product, for precautions to take.
When symbol is marked on a product it denotes a warning advising you to
take precautions to avoid electrical shock.
When symbol is marked on a product it denotes a component that may be
hot. Touching this component may result in bodily injury.
Bold text denotes items that you must select or click in the software, such
as menu items and dialog box options. Bold text also denotes parameter
names.

  • Page 5 SCC Quick Start Guide. Customizing the SCC-FT01 You can customize the SCC-FT01 to connect to any of the AI, AO, digital input/output, or counter signals of the E Series DAQ device. After you customize the SCC-FT01, you can plug it into any SCC socket on the SC-2345 except the SCC power socket.
  • Page 6 The signal connection pads above connector J2, represented by item 1 in Figure 1, connect to different signals on the E Series DAQ device, depending on where you install the SCC-FT01 on the SC-2345. 1 I/O Pads...
  • Page 7 AO GND signal on the E Series DAQ device. An SCC-FT01 signal connection label, which defines the pad numbers on the SCC-FT01 board, is attached to the inside of the enclosure of the SCC module. Whether you plug the SCC-FT01 into an SCC socket for AI, AO, digital, or counter conditioning, the pads listed under the All column in Table 2 are connected, and you can use them.
  • Page 8 Table 2. Note When you plug the SCC-FT01 into the first-stage AI sockets on the SC-2345, you do not connect the outputs of the circuitry to the pads labeled Cascaded. Use pads labeled Cascaded only when you plug the SCC-FT01 into the second-stage (final-stage) socket to get the input signals through the SC-2345 from the first-stage socket.

  • Page 9: Analog Output

    The AO 0 and AO 1 signals depend on which AO SCC socket you use. If you plug the SCC-FT01 into the AO SCC socket J17, the DAC (A) pad connects to AO 0 and the DAC (B) pad to AO 1 on the E Series DAQ device.
