The SC-2345 with configurable connectors and SC-2350 offer two
optional accessories. For 19 in. rack systems, choose the rack-mount kit.
If you are using two SCC systems, or a single SCC system with a DAQPad
device, choose the stacking kit to mechanically attach both systems.

One power module is included with your carrier. Power modules
are sold separately in case you want to use your SC-2345 or SC-2350
in two or more configurations.

If you choose the SCC-PWR01, it is possible to power your SCC system
with the internal power source of your DAQ device. NI DAQCards and
DAQPads provide 800 mW of total power (480 mW of analog power)
from their internal source. NI PCI and PXI devices provide 4.50 W of total
power (1.74 W of analog power) from their internal source. If the power

If you choose either of the two versions of the SC-2345 with draw from your SCC modules is greater than the power available from
configurable connectors or the SC-2350 as your carrier, then you can your DAQ device, then you must use an external power source. The
install connectivity and interface panelettes to customize your SCC SCC-PWR02 includes an AC transformer. However, you must purchase
