.

Filter Bandwidth and Cutoff Frequency

The SCXI-1125 provides two filtering stages with an overall response of a
four-pole Butterworth filter. You can control the cutoff frequency of the
filter through software. You can choose 4 Hz or 10 kHz. For additional
flexibility in cutoff frequency settings and for greater suppression, NI
recommends combining the hardware filtering provided by the SCXI-1125
with digital filtering. NI recommends using the Advanced Analysis
functions of LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or Measurement Studio. By
combining hardware anti-aliasing with digital filtering, you can choose any
cutoff frequency.

The Advanced Analysis functions are only available in LabVIEW Full or
Professional Development Systems, and LabWindows/CVI Base or Full
Development Systems.

Operating in Multiplexed Mode

You can configure the SCXI-1125 to operate in multiplexed mode as
described in Chapter 1,

About the SCXI-1125

. Using this mode of

operation, you can scan all input channels of the SCXI-1125 into one
output channel that is read by the National Instruments DAQ device. You
can also multiplex the CJC channel that connects to a sensor on the SCXI
terminal block for making temperature measurements.
