The Multiplexer Topology

A multiplexer, or a mux, is a topology in which you can connect one input to multiple outputs or one output to multiple inputs. Use this topology to connect a sequence of channels to a common line. Refer to the NI Switches Help for more information about multiplexer topologies.

Note  You can resize the Switch Device window to see more channels.

Refer to the schematic below for an example of the NI PXI-2575 in the 1-Wire 196×1 mux topology.

Make a Multiplexer Connection

Click the end of the pole associated with the channel (left) you want to connect to the com channel (right). The Switch SFP makes the appropriate connect/disconnect calls to the driver.
