SCXI-1350 Installation
SCXI-1343 Rear Screw Terminal Adapter
© National Instruments Corporation
The adapter board has a male rear connector, a female front connector, and
a male chassis extender connector. You can attach the rear connector to a
ribbon cable from the MIO board or a preceding chassis. You connect the
front connector with the module rear signal connector. You connect the
chassis extender connector to a ribbon cable that goes to the subsequent
chassis. The adapter takes Channel 0 from the front connector and sends it
to Channel 0 of the rear connector. The adapter also takes channels 0
through 6 on the chassis extender connector and maps them to channels 1
through 7, respectively, on the rear connector.
Follow these steps to install the SCXI-1350:
1.
Make sure that the computer and all the SCXI chassis are turned off.
2.
Insert all the modules in all the chassis.
3.
Connect one end of a ribbon cable to the MIO board.
4.
Connect the other end of the ribbon cable to the rear connector of the
first SCXI-1350.
5.
Connect another ribbon cable or cable assembly to the chassis extender
connector.
6.
Plug the adapter board front connector to the module rear signal
connector. Make sure a corner of the adapter board enters the upper
board guide of the chassis.
7.
Screw the rear panel to the threaded strips in the rear of the chassis.
8.
Connect the cable assembly to the desired module in the second
chassis, or if you are using more than two chassis, connect the loose
end of the ribbon cable to the rear connector of the second SCXI-1350,
and install the adapter board.
9.
Continue until all chassis are connected. For N chassis, you will need
N ribbon cables and N multichassis adapters.
You use the SCXI-1343 universal adapter to adapt custom wiring to the
SCXI-1121. The SCXI-1343 has screw terminals for the analog output
connections and solder pads for the rest of the signals. A strain-relief clamp
is on the outside of the rear panel. Table E-4 shows the SCXI-1343 pin
connections.
