After updating the relay pattern, the switch module starts its debounce timer
and waits for the relay contacts to settle. When the debounce time elapses, the
switch module will generate a Scanner Advanced signal to notify the PXI
instruments or external measurement devices that the relay contacts have
settled, and ready to take a new measurement.
The waveform, polarity and pulse width of Scanner Advanced signal can also
be software programmed.
For more information on scanlist configuration, please refer to the software
programming users’ guide.
Figure 16 illustrates the available signal destinations for the Scanner Advanced
signal. Signal names in the solid-line boxes represent the external (physical)
signal on connectors, while signals in the dotted-line boxes represent switch
module’s internal signal.
