Ideal for medium-power automated test loads, these modules offer maximum relay density, with 100 latching relays in a single PXI slot. NI 2569 modules are able to switch up to 100 VDC/100 VAC or up to 1 A. They are fully software-programmable and contain a 32,000-step scan list for deterministic scanning capability. Software All National Instruments PXI switch modules are shipped with NI-SWITCH, an IVI-compliant driver that offers complete functionality for all switch modules. For additional assistance in configuring, programming, and managing higherchannel-count switching systems, NI Switch Executive software provides an easy-to-use, intelligent switch management and visual routing environment. Automatic Scanning NI 2569 modules are able to maximize throughput in automated test applications by the use of scanning. Scanning improves throughput by downloading a list of up to 32,000 connections to the switch and cycling through the list using an event (trigger) without any interruption from the host processor. You can most efficiently implement scanning by mating an NI 2569 with an instrument such as the NI PXI-4070 6½-digit FlexDMM, which issues a trigger after each measurement.
