SCXI Terminal Blocks
TBX Terminal Block
Selection Guide
Use the following steps to select the correct combination
of TBX terminal blocks and cables for your SCXI system:
1. Select the required terminal blocks – For each
SCXI module, use table 1 to select the proper TBX
terminal block. If a TBX-13xx terminal block is not
available for your SCXI module, select the appropriate
number of general-purpose TBX-24F feedthrough
terminal blocks.
2. Select cabling – For each TBX terminal block, table
1 lists the cable needed to connect the TBX terminal
block to the SCXI module. Shielded cables are available
in lengths of 1, 2, and 5 m. If using the TBX-1303, you
also have the option to build a custom cable using the
SBS-96F backshell kit. For each TBX-1303 for which you
will build a custom cable, select two SBS-96F kits.
If using the TBX-24F, you will use discrete wires to
connect the TBX-24F to an SCXI front-mounting terminal
block. Therefore, select the appropriate SCXI front-
mounting terminal block for each SCXI module that
will use the TBX-24F.
3. Rack-mount accessory (optional) – If mounting
for 19 in. rack enclosures is needed, use table 2 to select
the appropriate number of TBX-RM1 rack-mount kits.
4. Calibration – Calibration of cold-junction sensors
and attenuation terminal blocks is available for some
devices. For more information, please visit
ni.com/calibration.
