EADS North America Test and Services Racal Instruments™ 1260-115A/B 48/96 Channel Relay Driver The Racal Instruments™ 1260-115A/B is a 48/96 channel relay driver plug-in designed for use in VXI Adapt-a-Switch™ carriers (Racal Instruments™ 1260-100 or 1260-101) and the 1256 GPIB/Ethernet Switching System. Key Features • 96 Open-collector driver channels or 48 high-voltage/current opencollector driver channels • Drives up to 50 V and sinks up to 1.5 A per channel • Standard Adapt-a-Switch™ plug-in design for ease of replacement • Supports “path-level” switching Product Information The 1260-115A has open collector outputs and provides 96 relay driver channels. This version can utilize a separate external pull-up supply of up to 32 VDC for each independent group. The 1260-115B has high voltage/current open collector (HVOC) outputs and provides 48 channels. This version can utilize a separate external pullup supply of up to 50 VDC. The Racal Instruments™ Option-01T interface (for VXI) controls the 1260115A/B using either register-based or message-based commands. The 1256 (for GPIB/Ethernet) supports message-based operations. Refer to the Option-01T/1256 literature for more information about product specifications and features such as include, exclude, and scan lists, userdefined path names and reset states. the system may be defined by name using the path feature. This makes “path-level” switching possible for ease of system configuration and troubleshooting. The 1260-115A/B plugs easily into a VXI Adapt-a-Switch™ Carrier or Racal Instruments 1256 GPIB/Ethernet Switching System. Please refer to the corresponding literature for specifications and product features. The Adapt-a-Switch™ series includes VXIplug&play support for frameworks based on Microsoft Win32® application programming interface, including drivers for LabWindows™/CVI and LabVIEW™. When the open-collector outputs of the 1260-115A/B are used to control externallymounted switches, all switch paths within ECO# 2011-EADSTS-02-01-11-41-MU.
