NI PXI-2527 2-Wire Dual 16×1 Multiplexer Topology

Connect to the pins of the NI TB-2627 terminal block to use the NI PXI-2527 as a 2-wire dual 16×1 multiplexer. In this topology, CH0+ through CH15+ route to COM0+, and CH0– through CH15– route to COM0–. Additionally, CH16+ through CH31+ route to COM1+, and CH16– through CH31– route to COM1–. The pair COM0+ and COM0– is addressed as com0 in software, and the pair COM1+ and COM1– is addressed as com1 in software.

The following figure represents the NI PXI-2527 in the 2-wire dual 16×1 multiplexer topology.

Making a Connection

Both the scanning command, ch2->com0;, and the immediate operation, niSwitch Connect Channels VI or the niSwitch_Connect function with parameters ch2 and com0, result in the following connections:

signal connected to CH2+ is routed to COM0+

signal connected to CH2– is routed COM0–
