The\u00a0National Instruments SCXI<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0products were discontinued on September 28th<\/sup>, 2018. However, all\u00a0SCXI<\/strong>\u00a0modules, accessories, chassis, etc. are available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves. Before the user sets up their\u00a0SCXI<\/strong>\u00a0system, these items are required: an\u00a0SCXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0(SCXI-2000<\/strong>,\u00a0SCXI-1000<\/strong>,\u00a0SCXI-1000DC<\/strong>, or\u00a0SCXI-1001<\/strong>), a computer, NI-DAQ driver software, an SCXI cable assembly, SCXI modules, and terminal blocks to utilize in the chassis, and DAQ instruments or the\u00a0SCXI-1200 DAQ Module<\/strong>. The chassis holds the modules and provides power, controlling the SCXIbus. The chassis has a digital bus, an analog bus, and a chassis controller to control bus functions. The analog bus transports analog signals from every resident analog input module to the DAQ instrument with a link from one module to the DAQ instrument. The DAQ instrument\u2019s digital lines communicate with the\u00a0SCXI chassis<\/strong>\u00a0controller and manipulate the digital bus, which is in charge of chassis functions.<\/p>\n

One of the obsolete products is the\u00a0SCXI-1000 Chassis<\/a><\/strong>. The\u00a0NI SCXI-1000<\/strong>\u00a0has four slots, AC power, and is perfect for one-chassis or minimal channel count applications. This model has seven different power input options, each corresponding to a different country. Another obsolete\u00a0SCXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0is the\u00a0SCXI-1000DC<\/a><\/strong>. This\u00a0Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0has four slots as well, but it accepts DC power. There is also the\u00a0SCXI-1001 Chassis<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0with 12 slots and AC power.<\/p>\n

Other than the chassis, there are additionally many\u00a0SCXI end of life<\/strong>\u00a0modules. For example, the\u00a0SCXI-1100<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is a 32-Channel Voltage Input Module, which is used for the signal conditioning of current, volt, and millivolt signals. There are several types of\u00a0SCXI Analog Input Modules<\/strong>, which can filter, amplify, isolate, and multiplex current and voltage signals. The modules have many different special features, such as excitation potentials, RS-232 and RS-485 capabilities, or even the capability to implement customized signal conditioning circuits with ease.<\/p>\n

Additionally,\u00a0SCXI Terminal Blocks<\/strong>\u00a0belong to this product line. The\u00a0Terminal Blocks\u00a0<\/strong>attach straight to the front of an SCXI module, offering a swift, dependable way to link I\/O signals to the user\u2019s system. There are two types of\u00a0SCXI Terminal Blocks\u00a0<\/strong>available: Terminal Block Extensions (TBX) or direct-mount. The TBX Terminal Blocks are DIN-rail-mountable and attach to SCXI modules via shielded cables. However, the direct-mount Terminal Blocks links transducers to the screw terminals in a completely shielded terminal block enclosure. The\u00a0NI SCXI-1303<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is a 32-Channel\u00a0Isothermal Terminal Block<\/strong>, which links to the\u00a0SCXI-1100<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0SCXI-1102\/B\/C<\/strong>\u00a0modules. Certain Terminal Blocks have features like a temperature sensor for cold-junction compensation, shunt calibration, AC\/DC coupling, and more.<\/p>\n

An\u00a0SCXI<\/strong>\u00a0system can be programmed with NI-DAQ driver software, ComponentWorks, LabWindows\/CVI, or LabVIEW. LabVIEW utilizes graphical programming, while LabWindows\/CVI enhances ANSI C. NI-DAQ has many features that can be called from the user\u2019s application development environment or ADE. Modules must be configured prior to utilizing them in an application.<\/p>\n
