Connections for Floating Signal Sources
It is important to connect the negative lead of a floating signals source to
AI GND (either directly or through a resistor). Otherwise the source may
float out of the valid input range of the NI-PGIA and the DAQ device
returns erroneous data.
Figure 4-20 shows a floating source connected to the DAQ device in
NRSE mode.

resistors as well. Replace AI– with AI SENSE in Figures 4-16, 4-17, 4-18,
and 4-19 for configurations with zero to two bias resistors. The noise
rejection of NRSE mode is better than RSE mode because the AI SENSE
connection is made remotely near the source. However, the noise rejection
of NRSE mode is worse than DIFF mode because the AI SENSE
connection is shared with all channels rather than being cabled in a
twisted pair with the AI+ signal.
