PXI Matrix Switch Module
-
PXI Matrix Switch Modules are organized into rows and columns and provide maximum flexibility for switching systems by allowing you to connect any channel to any other channel. PXI Matrix Switch Modules use a variety of relay types, including electromechanical armature relays, reed relays, field-effect transistor (FET) relays, and solid-state relays, each with their own benefits, allowing you to choose a matrix that fits your requirements. To program the switches, you can use the IVI-compliant NI-SWITCH driver software, complete with help documentation, example programs, and a soft front panel application for interactive control of switches. For intelligent management of complex switch systems, NI Switch Executive provides additional software tools to help you design, build, and deploy your switching system.
