Product Overview
Coaxial signals reach a 68-pin NI multifunction or analog output card most cleanly through a panel of BNC jacks. This noise-rejecting, shielded block carries 15 female BNCs, a 30-position spring terminal strip for digital and timing lines, and a 68-pin male SCSI back end.
Key Features
- Eight analog input BNCs, ACH0 to ACH7, each with its own FS/GS switch
- ACH2 to ACH7 jacks double as DAC2 OUT to DAC7 OUT
- DAC0 OUT, DAC1 OUT and EXTREF BNCs
- PFI 0/TRIG 1 and CTR0 OUT BNCs for trigger and counter work
- USER 1 and USER 2 BNCs, each with a write-on NAME space
- 30-position spring terminal strip with PFI 1 to PFI 9, DIO 0 to DIO 7, +5V, DGND, AISENSE and AIGND among its labels
- 68-pin male SCSI connector on the end panel
Applications
- Bringing oscilloscope-style coaxial leads from a sensor rig into an existing 68-pin DAQ card
- Driving analog outputs to a device under test while reading responses on the same panel
- Replacing a worn BNC breakout on a teaching lab station without rewiring the bench
Frequently Asked Questions
Which way should the FS/GS switches sit with an analog output board?
FS. The panel note reads Set to FS with Analog Output boards, and it applies to the inputs marked with an asterisk.
Can I land bare wires on it?
Yes. The 30-position spring terminal strip takes bare wire for the digital and timing lines.
Does it come checked by eye only, with no signal test?
Yes. It is clean, inspected and in good condition, and no signal was run through it. You get the BNC block itself, and take on checking each jack and spring terminal against your own card. Flat-rate shipping in the lower 48, and orders over the free-shipping line ship free.
Every analog input on the panel has its own small FS or GS switch, so the box wants to know how your source is grounded before anything else. Set each switch to match its source before the first cable goes on.
