National Instruments SCXI-1124 Analog Output Module

The SCXI-1124 (Part Number: 776572-24) is a 6-channel isolated Analog Output Module for static DC (low bandwidth) voltage or current signals. The maximum update rate is 555 S/s for one channel and 125 S/s per channel for all six channels. The NI SCXI-1124 incorporates six autonomously isolated, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) channels. The user can arrange each channel for voltage or current output. For voltage, the user has the option to pick any of the accessible three unipolar or three bipolar ranges. For current, each channel outputs between 0 to 20 mA.

This Analog Output Module is software configurable and incorporates a locally available EEPROM for saving calibration constants. This module is perfect for applications requiring confined voltage or current outputs to control a procedure. For more channels, the user can utilize a few NI SCXI 1124 modules in a SCXI framework, alongside other signal conditioning I/O modules.

With this module, the user can software program each channel for the following voltage output ranges: 0 to 1, 0 to 5, 0 to 10, ±1, ±5, or ±10 V. Within a single module, the user can progressively associate channels to make output signals up to 60 VDC per module. Every voltage channel incorporates a low impedance output buffer that can drive up to 5 mA.

The SCXI-1124 is run using the NI-DAQmx driver software which is compatible with software packages/application development environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or Measurement Studio.

The SCXI-1124 is digitally over the SCXIbus, so a single DAQ gadget can control a few NI SCXI-1124 modules. In multiplexed serial mode, one DAQ gadget controls at least one SCXI-1124 module through the SCXIbus by utilizing a serial computerized information convention. This method of activity utilizes a maximum of five computerized I/O lines of the module DAQ gadget. The device is equipped with a 48-pin DIN C male front connector and a 50-pin male ribbon-cable back connector. The NI device measures 1.2 x 6.8 x 8.0 in. in physical dimensions.

SCXI-1124 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the module will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves. 

The SCXI-1124 is available to be calibrated. While the recommended calibration period for individual parts varies, most parts should be calibrated either annually or every two years to ensure accuracy. If you need the SCXI-1124 calibrated, Apex Waves provides options. We offer high-quality NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party, with an average turnaround time of 1 to 2 weeks. When you order the SCXI-1124 with us, you can request basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration that will calibrate the part to the manufacturer specifications prior to being shipped.
