SCXI-1125 User Manual

After parallel mode has been configured in software, you can scan the
SCXI-1125 channels by entering the corresponding E Series DAQ device
channels or a sequential SCXI channel string in the channel parameter in
the analog input application. You can also enter virtual channels; however,
in parallel mode, virtual channels containing CJC are disabled in MAX.

C and Parallel Mode

When using a C-based ADE, you need no special steps for configuring the
chassis, the SCXI-1125, or the E Series DAQ device for parallel scanning.
You still have to configure the gain and filter settings by using

SCXI_Set_Gain

and

SCXI_Configure_Filter

. You can use any of the

E Series DAQ device analog input functions to get the data from the eight
channels of the SCXI module. After scanning, convert the binary data to
voltage data by using

SCXI_Scale.

Refer to the NI-DAQ User Manual for

additional information on parallel scanning of SCXI modules.

Other Application Documentation and Material

Refer to the ADE manual and the DAQ analog input examples that
come with your application software for more detailed information on
programming the SCXI modules for scanning in multiplexed mode.
