The National Instruments PCI-6528 board is an industrial 48-channel, parallel, isolated digital I/O interface for PCI systems. The NI PCI-6528 has 24 digital inputs and 24 digital switch outputs, completely jumper free. With the PCI-6528, you can sense digital levels up to ±60 VDC and switch currents up to 150 mA. Because PCI-6528 boards are isolated, you can protect your system from noise and spikes on external signals and break ground loops. Using programmable power-up states, you can configure the initial output states in software, to ensure glitch-free, safe operations when connected to industrial actuators (pumps/valves/motors/relays). By using Digital I/O watchdogs, you can enable the device to go to a configurable safe output state if a computer or application fault occurs, thereby ensuring detection and safe recovery from fault conditions when connected to industrial actuators. With change detection, the digital I/O device notifies and triggers your software application when a digital change of state occurs (without polling). Programmable input filters eliminate glitches/spikes and provide debouncing for digital switches/relays through a programmable digital filter.
National Instruments designs and manufactures all products to minimize failures, however unexpected failures can still occur. Extended warranties provide a fixed economical price at the time of system purchase, covering any repair costs for up to three years. In addition, they offer the following benefits:
Significant cost savings compared to individual repair incidents
Fault location, diagnostics, and repair by NI any time the system product fails
All parts and labor costs covered as well as any adjustments needed to restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications
NI recognizes the need to maintain properly calibrated devices for high-accuracy measurements. NI provides manual calibration procedures, services to recalibrate your products, and automated calibration software to calibrate many NI measurement products.
Return your registered product under warranty at no additional labor and parts cost. NI offers fault location, diagnostics, and repair any time the system fails as well as any adjustments needed to restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications.
