Figure 3 shows how to expand the rows of a 4x32 matrix using a matrix
expansion plug. The matrix expansion plug connects columns to expand
the rows. To expand the rows of a matrix, complete the following steps:
1.
Connect two SCXI-1378 terminal blocks to the front connectors of
two adjacent SCXI-1130 modules.
2.
Tighten the top and bottom chassis screws on the back of the terminal
block rear panels to hold them securely in place.
3.
Connect a matrix expansion plug to the top or bottom column
connectors of the two SCXI-1378 terminal blocks.
