FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

Is the PXI-8422/4 a two-port or four-port module?

It is the four-port isolated RS-232 model. The PXI-8422/2 is the separate two-port variant.

Does it have DB-9 connectors on the module?

No. The four-port board uses 10-position modular jacks and requires conversion cables for DB-9 or DB-25 connections.

Does the 2000 V rating describe continuous isolation?

No. It is a 2000 Vrms, five-second dielectric withstand rating. Continuous isolation is 60 VDC, CAT I.

Is the module supported by NI-Serial 17.0?

No. NI explicitly removed PXI-8422 support in NI-Serial 17.0. Verify an earlier driver and operating-system combination before use.
