C Series I/O modules. Refer to ni.com/daq supported by the NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier. The NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier combines with an NI C Series I/O module to form an NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device, as shown in Figure 1. Note Only the NI WLS-9163 carrier comes with an antenna for wireless deployment.
Some C Series I/O modules may have more stringent certification standards than the Note NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier, and the combined system may be limited by individual component restrictions. Caution The NI WLS/ENET-9000 Series device is not certified for use in hazardous locations.
Do not mix hazardous voltage circuits and human-accessible circuits on the same Caution module. Caution Make sure that the NI WLS/ENET-9163 carrier and circuits connected to the module are properly insulated from human contact. The NI WLS/ENET-9163 carriers provide no isolation, but some modules offer Caution isolation.
