Overview
The NI PXI-2569 and PXIe-2569 are 100-channel, general-purpose switch
modules featuring SPST (Form A) armature relays. Ideal for medium-power
automated test loads, these modules offer maximum relay density, with
100 latching relays in a single PXI slot. NI 2569 modules are able to switch
up to 100 VDC/100 VAC or up to 1 A. They are fully software-programmable
and contain a 32,000-step scan list for deterministic scanning capability.
Software
All National Instruments PXI switch modules are shipped with NI-SWITCH, an
IVI-compliant driver that offers complete functionality for all switch modules.
For additional assistance in configuring, programming, and managing higher-
channel-count switching systems, NI Switch Executive software provides an
easy-to-use, intelligent switch management and visual routing environment.
Automatic Scanning
NI 2569 modules are able to maximize throughput in automated test applications
by the use of scanning. Scanning improves throughput by downloading a list
of up to 32,000 connections to the switch and cycling through the list using an
event (trigger) without any interruption from the host processor. You can
most efficiently implement scanning by mating an NI 2569 with an instrument
such as the NI PXI-4070 6½-digit FlexDMM, which issues a trigger after
each measurement.
