VXI network card 1260-116

RS-232GPIBmulti-channel

The Racal Instruments™ 1260-116 is a 24-channel, Form C, Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT) switch plug-in for use in either a Racal Instruments™ 1260-100 Adapt-a-Switch™ VXI carrier or 1256 GPIB/RS-232 switching mainframe. Product Information Custom relay switch networks may be configured with some of the relays while all remaining channels continue independent operations. This plug-in can switch up to 5 A making it useful to control external devices such as motors or loads. It can be used for applications requiring high-current switching of AC and DC power supplies as well as a current source. If the 1260-116 is used with the Racal Instruments™ 1260-100 Adapt-a-Switch™ platform, a Racal Instruments™ Option 01T is required to communicate with the switch cards, and to provide message- based operation for ease of use and register-based operation for maximum speeds. If the switch card is used with the 1256 mainframe, no additional controller is required. The Adapt-a-Switch™ line includes drivers for LabWindows™/CVI and LabVIEW™ for VXI applications. It also includes VXIplug&play support for frameworks based on Microsoft Win32® application programming interface. Key Features • High-density, 24 SPDT (Form C) channels • Each channel switches up to 5 A at 30 VDC or 250 VAC • Easily configured individual relays • Ideal for general purpose switching and control of external devices • Plug-in design for rapid expansion and replacement
