Overview
Automatic Scanning
The National Instruments PXI-2585 and PXI-2586 are high-power
switch modules in a single-slot, 3U PXI form factor. They each have
10 channels, with the PXI-2585 configured as a 10x1 multiplexer and
the PXI-2586 configured as independent SPST (Form A) relays. Both
have low contact resistance and high isolation voltage. The NI PXI2585 and PXI-2586, rated for both high currents (up to 12 A) and
high voltages (up to 300 VDC/300 VAC), are ideal for switching power
signals and loads in control applications, and battery, power supply,
and automotive testing. In AC applications, they can switch up to
3000 VA. For DC, see Figure 1.
The PXI-2585 and PXI-2586 maximize throughput in automated test
applications by the use of scanning. Scanning improves throughput by
downloading a list of up to 32,000 connections to the switch and cycling
through the list using an event (trigger) without any interruption from
the host processor. Scanning is most efficiently accomplished by mating
the PXI-2585 and PXI-2586 with a companion modular instrument
that will issue a trigger after each measurement is complete.
Software
All National Instruments PXI and SCXI switch modules are shipped
with NI-SWITCH, an IVI-compliant driver offering complete
functionality for all switch modules. For additional assistance in
configuring, programming, and managing higher-channel-count
switching systems, NI Switch Executive software offers an easy-to use,
intelligent switch management and visual routing environment.

Relay Count Tracking
The PXI-2585 and PXI-2586 count each relay closure on each of its
high-power relays. The counts are stored onboard and can be
retrieved as necessary for predictive maintenance to reduce
unexpected system downtime.
