The 781472-01 is a Serial Interface Module from National Instruments that is equipped with 8 ports. It is the identifying part number for the NI PXIe-8430/8 model. This module is not isolated and supports the RS-232 serial communication standard. Featuring a 68-pin VHDCI I/O connector, this PXIe module has a maximum baud rate of 1 mbps and a FIFO size of 128 bytes. The FIFO settings are adjustable by the user. In terms of power, the 781472-01 has a typical power requirement of 220 mA and a maximum requirement of 250 mA at 12 VDC. At 3.3 VDC, the typical power requirement is lowered to 200 mA and the maximum is 750 mA.
Upon installation, the ports of the 781472-01 are uncovered to the operating system (OS), which allows the user to interface it with any application that utilizes a standard Microsoft Windows Serial (COM) port interface. The software and drivers of the module enable helpful features such as configuring a custom baud rate, utilizing flow control, and configuring the adjustable FIFO settings.
This Serial Interface Module weighs in at 143 g and measures 3.94 in x 6.37 in (100 mm × 160 mm) in physical dimensions. While operational, it is recommended to keep the device within an operating temperature range of 0 to 55°C. For storage environments, the temperature should be kept within the range of -40°C to 71°C. For both operating and storage environments, the relative humidity should be noncondensing, ranging from 10 to 90% and 5 to 95% respectively. The device can withstand random vibrations within a frequency range of 5 to 500 Hz, with random vibrations of 0.3 grms when operational and vibrations of 2.4 grms when not in use.
The RS-232 standard features single-ended transmission lines, with a maximum of one driver and one receiver. The maximum cable length that can be used should measure the equivalent of 2,500 pF. The 781472-01 Serial Interface Module meets the following standard safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use: IEC 61010-1, EN 61010-1, UL 61010-1, and CSA 61010-1.
