PXI multimeter offers 6½ digits
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 9/1/2007
Delivering 6½ digits of resolution at up to 10 readings/s and up to 3000 readings/s at lower resolutions, the PXI-4065 multimeter from National Instruments makes it possible to develop high-channel-count datalogging measurement systems based on the PXI bus. You can combine the multimeter with more than 150 available NI PXI switch configurations in the PXI-1033 chassis with integrated controller to create datalogging systems for $3500 with up to 48 channels and for $12,000 with up to 784 channels. For further system expansion, you can add 3000 channels with each additional 18-slot PXI chassis.
The PXI-4065 digital multimeter provides isolation of ±300 VDC/VRMS, current measurements up to 3 A, and two-wire or four-wire resistance measurements. With the NI-DMM driver software that comes with the PXI-4065, you can build high-channel–count systems using National Instruments’ LabView SignalExpress. For automated test systems, the multimeter is also compatible with NI TestStand, LabView, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio development environments, offering a variety of options for defining and controlling measurement applications.
