  • Page 13 NI 9237 with DSUB NI 9237 with RJ50 You also can connect floating signals to the NI 9237. If you connect floating signals to the NI 9237, NI recommends connecting the EX- signal to the earth ground or shield for better noise rejection.
  • Page 14 EX- signal to the earth ground or shield for better noise rejection. Bridge Calibration When you insert or remove a new sensor from the NI 9237, slight changes in the excitation voltages can cause a mismatch between the internal half-bridge completion resistors and the half-bridge sensors, which results in a change in the measurement offsets.
  • Page 15 RS- /SC- NI 9237 with DSUB NI 9237 with RJ50 You also can use a quarter bridge with the NI 9237 with RJ-50 if you use the NI 9944 or NI 9945 Quarter Bridge Completion Accessory. 14 | ni.com | NI 9237 Getting Started Guide...
  • Page 16 NI 9237 Ensure that neither the TEDS data (T+) nor the TEDS return (T-) signal is tied in common to any AI signals on the NI 9237. The NI 9237 connects all the T- signals together internally. The NI 9237 with DSUB has only three T- pins. To connect four TEDS sensors to the NI 9237 with DSUB, wire the TEDS return signals of two of the sensors to one of the T- pins.
