The 1260-120 is a 20-channel, SPST (Form A) high-power,
plug-in switch card for the Adapt-a-Switch™ carrier. It installs,
easily and directly from the front panel, into the Adapt-a-Switch VXIbus
Carrier, Model 1260-100. Please refer to the 1260-100
data sheet for specifications and product features.
Each channel of the
1260-120 can switch up to 13A, 250VAC or 10A, 125VDC; its switching capability
makes it the ideal solution for applications requiring high-current switching
of AC power, DC power supplies, and AC or DC current sources.
To ensure safe switching
in high-current applications, an external “Emergency Reset” switch may
be connected to the front-panel connector of the 1260-120 to provide the
ability to instantly open all channels on the switch card, or to open
all channels on all cards connected to the same Option 01T.
As all relays on
the 1260-120 are electromechanical, all inputs/outputs are interchangeable
to meet the test requirements. Mating front-panel connectors, complete
with pins, are included with the 1260-120. The Option 01T interface controls
the 1260-120, using both register-based and message-based operation. Refer
to the Option 01T data sheet for product
specifications and features such as include, exclude, and scan lists;
relay coil-current monitoring; and user-defined path names and reset states.
Adapt-a-Switch includes
VXIplug&play support of WIN95/NT frameworks, including drivers
for LabWindows/CVI and LabVIEW.
