SCC Configuration Guide SCC – Portable, Low-Cost Signal Conditioning • Ideal for portable measurement systems • Wide variety of direct signal and sensor connectivity options • Wide range of analog and digital conditioning options • Measurement type selectable on a per-channel basis • Front-end signal conditioning for M Series, E Series, and some B Series multifunction DAQ devices Configure Your SCC System in Six Steps Step 1 – Select Your SCC Modules (Table 1) Analog input, analog output, and digital I/O modules have dedicated slots. You can select up to eight noncascaded modules for analog input and eight modules for digital I/O. You can install feedthrough modules in any slot, but they are especially useful for accessing counter/timers on your M Series, E Series, or B Series multifunction DAQ device. Step 2 – Choose an SCC Carrier (Table 2) SCC carriers are available either with a hinged lid or with configurable connectors using panelettes. Hinged lids provide quick access to the modules. Configurable connectors provide custom signalinterface options. Step 3 – Select Your Panelettes (Table 3) If you have chosen an SCC carrier with configurable connectors, you can also select connector and interface panelettes. Different carriers offer different numbers of panelette slots. Also, some panelettes occupy more than one slot. Step 4 – Determine Your Power Option (Table 4) You can power an SCC system using a +5 VDC, 120/240 VAC, or 7 to 42 VDC external power source. To indicate the power option for your SCC system, select 01, 02, or 03 as the last two digits of the part number of the SC-2345 or SC-2350 carrier. Please note that if you choose power option 01, it is possible to power your SCC system using the internal power source of your DAQ device. For DAQCard and DAQPad devices, the total power required by your SCC modules must be less than 800 mW (490 mW of analog power). For PCI or PXI and M Series or E Series multifunction DAQ devices, the total power required by your SCC modules must be less than 4.55 W (1.74 W for analog modules). Additional power modules are sold separately. To determine the power requirements of the modules in your SCC DAQ system, use the online SCC Advisor at ni.com/advisors. Step 5 – Select Your DAQ Device and Cable (Table 5) Select the DAQ device to control your system. Step 6 – Select Your Accessories Choose from rack/panel-mount kits and stacking kits. You can also select additional power kits separately if your application requires multiple power configurations.
