Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

Designed for industrial digital output tasks, the NI-9477 switches load current through sinking outputs. Channels can be connected in parallel for higher-current loads within NI's channel and module limits.

The NI-9477 uses serial digital communication. In CompactDAQ systems it cannot access the chassis onboard counters; select a supported parallel digital module when counter access is required.

  • Output-only design with no digital input or bidirectional channels.
  • Channel-to-earth isolation for industrial signal interfacing.
  • Parallel channel wiring supports higher-current load control within specified limits.

FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

Does the NI-9477 source or sink current?

It sinks current: an enabled output conducts from DO to COM.

Can the NI-9477 access CompactDAQ counters?

No. NI lists the NI-9477 among serial digital modules that cannot access the chassis onboard counters.

Can all 32 channels continuously sink 1 A each?

No. The total module limit is 20 A. NI specifies 1 A per channel on up to 20 channels, or 625 mA per channel across all 32.
