PXIe-1086 Specifications
This document contains specifications for the PXIe-1086 chassis.
Electrical
AC Input
Input voltage range | 100 to 240 VAC |
Operating voltage range[1] | 90 to 264 VAC |

Power disconnect | The AC power cable provides main power disconnect. Do not position the equipment so that it is difficult to disconnect the power cord. The front-panel power switch causes the internal chassis power supply to provide DC power to the CompactPCI/PXI Express backplane. You also can use the front panel terminal block 4-pin connector and power mode switch to control the internal chassis power supply. |
