Input Filtering and Current Loop Receivers
If you need input filtering, pads in which you can insert a capacitor are available at each input
channel. Table 2-6 shows which capacitor reference designator corresponds to which input
channel.

In addition, pads are available for transforming individual channels to current-to-voltage
converters. National Instruments manufactures an SCXI process-current pack, which consists of
a package of four 249

C, 1/4 W resistors. The part number for this kit is in the
Optional Equipment section of Chapter 1, Introduction. Table 2-7 shows the input channels and
their corresponding resistor reference designators.
