    • 1 The PXI-2530B has eight interconnected banks of 1-wire 16 × 1 multiplexers. These multiplexers can be used in any combination with the independent topology.
    • 2 Measurement Category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly connected to the electrical distribution system referred to as MAINS voltage. MAINS is a hazardous live electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is for measurements of voltages from specially protected secondary circuits. Such voltage measurements include signal levels, special equipment, limited-energy parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated low-voltage sources, and electronics.
    • 3 Path resistance is a combination of relay contact resistance and trace resistance. Contact resistance typically remains low for the life of a relay. At the end of relay life, the contact resistance may rapidly rise above 3 Ω.
    • 4 Certain applications may require additional time for proper settling.
    • 5 Reed relays are highly susceptible to damage caused by switching capacitive and inductive loads. Capacitive loads can cause high inrush currents while inductive loads can cause high flyback voltages. The addition of appropriate resistive protection can greatly improve contact lifetime. For more information about adding protection circuitry to a capacitive load, visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code relaylifetime. For information about inductive loads, enter the Info Code relayflyback.
    • 6 The relays used in the PXI-2530B are field replaceable.
    • 7 The PXI-2530B can recognize trigger pulse widths less than 150 ns if you disable digital filtering.
    • 8 NI advises against installing reed relay modules directly adjacent to an embedded controller with a magnetic hard drive because of the sensitivity of reed relays and the possibility of interference.
