Signal Connection
3.1 PXI-7901 Topology
The PXI-7901 has 16 independent SPDT Relays onboard. Each relay has three
terminals, NC (normally closed), NO (normally opened), and COM (common).
When a relay is in its reset (de-energized) state, the NC connects to COM;
while in set (energized) state, the NO connects to COM. Thus all signal paths
on PXI-7901 are inherently break-before-make.
After power-up, all relays are in their reset (de-energized) state; i.e. NC
connects to COM.
