High-Frequency Multiplexer/Matrix Modules
System Integration
The NI 2593 modules have a flexible scan list architecture that can reduce
overall data acquisition and test time. A scan list delivers the fastest scan
possible by providing a hardware-timed solution. You can configure the module
to process the scan list once or to continuously loop through the scan list.
Commands in the scan list can open or close relays, wait for an external trigger,
and generate a scanner advanced trigger. The external trigger, sourced by
an instrument, such as an NI PXI-5411 arbitrary waveform generator, causes
the switch module to advance to the next entry in the scan list. The scanner
advanced trigger indicates when the module has closed all specified relays
and the relays have settled. The scanner advanced trigger is typically connected
to a measurement device, such as the NI PXI-4070 FlexDMM, which is
configured to take a reading upon receiving the trigger.
Software
All National Instruments PXI and SCXI 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.
