Open Channel and Channel to Channel Isolation Resistance on NI 2571

Updated Aug 28, 2026

Hardware

  • PXI-2571

Issue Details

Could you please provide the open-channel isolation resistance specification for the NI PXI-2571 when a relay channel is in the OFF state, as well as the channel-to-channel isolation resistance value?

Solution

The approximate isolation resistance is greater than 1 GΩ under the following conditions:

  • Open-channel isolation resistance: When the relay is OFF/open.
  • Channel-to-channel isolation resistance: Isolation measured between two relay channels.

Additional Information

Isolation resistance represents the level of electrical isolation between circuits. A higher isolation resistance indicates lower leakage current between the isolated paths.
