Use rear connector of SCXI-1520 as an input?

[hma1]

Good morning,

Regarding connectors on the SCXI-1520, is it possible to use the rear connector as a 68-pin input (instead of an output)? 

I have the following hardware and wanted to know if it's feasible to pipe a signal from an SC-2345 to a PC through the path below.

NI SC-2345 (Signal Cond. Block)  --> NI SCXI 1520 (Universal Strain/Bridge) via 68-pin cable   -->  NI SCXI 1600 (USB Digitizer Card) --> PC

Thanks

Hello hma1,

Unfortunately you will not be able to do that.  The only "input" would be when taking in signals from cascaded chassis.
