Wide temperature stability: 0–50 °C operating temperature, HALT test verified, industrial-grade reliability.

Universal Compatibility: Plug-and-play 3U PXI/CompactPCI modules, compatible with NI and third-party modules.

VI. Application Scenarios

Laboratory Measurement: Sensor signal acquisition, vibration/noise analysis, low-speed dynamic testing.

Office/Teaching Testing: Desktop automated testing, course experimental platform, small-scale research projects.

Portable Measurement and Control: Field detection, vehicle testing, portable data acquisition system.

Lightweight Industrial Control: Small production line monitoring, equipment status monitoring, low-power measurement and control nodes.

VII. Installation and Maintenance Instructions

Installation:

Rack: 4U standard cabinet, fixed rails / screws.

Desktop: Install foot pads, place stably; avoid blocking ventilation ports.

Modules: Power off and plug out, tighten the fixing screws to prevent vibration loosening.

Power-on Operation:

Connect 90–264 VAC, turn on the power switch.

The controller automatically recognizes the module, installs the driver, and then it can be used.

Daily Maintenance:

Cleaning: After power off, use a soft-bristled brush to clean the dust in the front and rear ventilation ports to prevent overheating.

Environment: Avoid moisture, dust, strong electromagnetic interference; operating temperature 0–50 °C. Electrostatic protection: When plugging or unplugging the module, wear an anti-static wristband to prevent the board cards from being damaged by static electricity.
