Note You must use 2-wire ferrules to create a secure connection when connecting more than one wire to a single terminal on the NI 9481E.

When the channel is turned on, the terminal connected to the load drives current or applies voltage to the load. When the channel is off, the terminal does not drive current or apply voltage to the load.

Sleep Mode

This module supports a low-power sleep mode. Support for sleep mode at the system level depends on the chassis that the module is plugged into. Refer to the chassis manual for information about support for sleep mode. If the chassis supports sleep mode, refer to the software help for information about enabling sleep mode. Visit ni.com/info and enter cseriesdoc for information about

C Series documentation.

Typically, when a system is in sleep mode, you cannot communicate with the modules. In sleep mode, the system consumes minimal power and may dissipate less heat than it does in normal mode. Refer to the Specifications section for more information about power consumption and thermal dissipation.
