The rapid variability of X-ray binaries (XRBs) produces a wide range of X-ray states that are linked to activity across the electromagnetic spectrum. It is particularly challenging to study a sample of sources large enough to include all types in their various states, and to cover the full range of frequencies that show flux density variations. Simultaneous observations with many telescopes are necessary. In this project, we monitor 48 XRBs with seven telescopes across the electromagnetic spectrum from 5 × 10⁹ to 10¹⁹ Hz, including ground-based radio, IR, and optical observatories, and five instruments on two spacecraft over a 1 week period. We construct spectral energy distributions and matching X-ray color-intensity diagrams for 20 sources that have the most extensive detections. Our observations are consistent with several models of expected behavior proposed for the different classes: we detect no significant radio emission from pulsars or atoll sources, but we do detect radio emission from Z sources in the normal or horizontal branch, and from black holes in the high/soft, low/hard, and quiescent states. The survey data provide useful constraints for more detailed models predicting behavior from the different classes of sources.
