SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE PROGRAMMING OPTIONS FOR PICKERING INTERFACES PXI MODULES For information on the installation and use of drivers and the programming of Pickering’s products in various software environments, please refer to the Software User Manual. This is available as a download from: https://www.pickeringtest.com/support/software-drivers-and-downloads...
SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE pickering MODULE ARCHITECTURE - 40-131-001/101/201 The 40-131-001 and 40-131-101 are arrays of 16, and the 40-131-201 is an array of 26 uncommitted changeover relays. In the default state, all signal paths are between the C terminal and the corresponding B terminal. Energising a particular relay disconnects the B terminal and creates a signal path between the C and A terminals.
SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE pickering MODULE ARCHITECTURE - 40-132-101/201 The 40-132-101 is an array of 16, and the 40-132-201 is an array of 32 uncommitted SPST relays. In the default state, all signal paths are open. Energising a particular relay creates a signal path between the C and A terminals.
SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE pickering MODULE ARCHITECTURE - 40-132-102/202 The 40-132-102 is an array of 16, and the 40-132-202 is an array of 19 uncommitted DPST relays. In the default state, all signal paths are open. Energising a particular relay creates a signal path between the C and A terminals of both poles of the corresponding channel.
SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE pickering PROGRAMMING THE MODULE Here are examples of using the drivers with the 40-131-201 (26 x SPDT) module. Other modules in the range operate in the same way but have a different number of bits in the sub-unit.
