NI PXI-2532 2-Wire 4×64 Matrix Topology
The NI TB-2643 terminal block creates a 2-wire 4×64 matrix topology with the NI PXI-2532. The following figure represents the NI PXI-2532 in the 2-wire 4×64 matrix topology.
Making a Connection
Both the scanning command, r2->c1;, and the immediate operation, niSwitch Connect Channels VI or the niSwitch_Connect function with parameters r2 and c1, result in the following connections:
signal connected to R2+ is routed to C1+
signal connected to R2– is routed to C1–
Terminal Block Connections
The NI TB-2643 terminal block connects banks of the NI PXI-2532 to create the 2-wire 4×64 matrix topology. The following figure illustrates how the native banks of the NI PXI-2532 connect using the NI TB-2643 to create the 2-wire 4×64 matrix topology.

Row Pin Connections
The NI TB-2643 provides two ribbon cable headers for row connection. Use one cable header to connect to your application. Use the other cable header for column expansion.
The following table lists the pin assignments for row connection.
| Pin Number | Row |
|---|---|
| 1 | R0+ |
| 2 | R0– |
| 3 | R1+ |
| 4 | R1– |
| 5 | R2+ |
| 6 | R2– |
| 7 | R3+ |
| 8 | R3– |
| 9–16 | — |
Row Protection Bypass Header
The row ribbon cable headers are isolated from the reed relays through 100 Ω resistors. To bypass these resistors, install a jumper in the appropriate position of J5 on the switch module interface board. The following table lists possible jumper locations.
| Pin Connected | Bypassed Row |
|---|---|
| 1–2 | R0+ |
| 3–4 | R0– |
| 5–6 | R1+ |
| 7–8 | R1– |
| 9–10 | R2+ |
| 11–12 | R2– |
| 13–14 | R3+ |
| 15–16 | R3– |
