Overview

The AL-1010 is a 12-channel multi-purpose board to be connected between the Device Under Test (DUT) and the instrumentation part of the test system. The board is recommended for systems requiring high flexibility on the pin configurations. AL-1010 is made for National Instruments (NI) Switch Load Signal Conditioning (SLSC) system. The board is made to interface with NI PXI and/or Compact-RIO instrumentation devices for the purposes of test and validation of Electronic Control Unit (ECU) software and hardware. Custom device for VeriStand is included for Hardware-In-the-Loop applications. For larger applications, ALIARO xMove Configurator is recommended for channel configuration.

Description

The AL-1010 provide multiple functions for fault insertion, signal conditioning and digital I/O, including pulsed (PWM) signals. The AL-1010 is fitted in pair through the RTI-backplane AL-1010-RTI. This backplane PCB is needed to reach fully flexibility and enables easy connection to NI PXIe and/or Compact-RIO instrumentation devices. Additional with add-on boards the functionality can be expanded further.
