RF Switching Precautions
The SCXI-119X are reflective switches , meaning that any channels not
switched to the common channel are unterminated, and any signal on an
unterminated channel is reflected to its source. For most low-power
switching applications, this reflection is not a problem. However, operation
with an unterminated output can damage some high-power RF sources.
Consult your RF source documentation for more information about
connecting to unterminated channels.
Warning Do not exceed the channel-to-ground rating of 24 V
rms
or DC on the SCXI-1190,
30 V
rms
or DC for the SCXI-1191, or 30 V
rms
or DC for the SCXI-1192. Any connections
that exceed the maximum voltage for the SCXI-119X can result in an electrical shock
hazard and damage to the switch module and any or all of the modules connected to the
SCXIbus
