    For the 40-138 the Figure 2.2 below provides guidance. It assumes that all contacts carry the same current and that every path has the maximum resistance value shown on the data sheet. It is therefore a worst case scenario. If your application is likely to load large numbers of contacts with currents over 0.7 Amps you should consult the graph to...

  • Page 19: Pre Operation Checks

    Modular products require installation in a suitable PXI/LXI chassis. The module is designed for indoor use only. PREOPERATION CHECKS (UNPACKING) 1. Check the module for transport damage and report any damage immediately to Pickering Interfaces. Do not attempt to install the product if any damage is evident.

  • Page 20: Hardware Installation

    For a system comprising more than one chassis, turn ON the last chassis in the system followed by the penultimate, etc, and finally turn ON the external controller or chassis containing the system controller. 9. For Pickering Interfaces modular LXI installation there is no requirement to use any particular power up sequence.

    Sub-units The 40-138 contains a single sub-unit, 80 bits wide, each bit corresponding to a switch position. Please note that due to the versatile nature of this card, the size of the sub-unit does not necessarily correspond to the actual number of switches fitted, rather it corresponds to the potential number of switches which will differ according to configuration.
