Software

To calibrate the NI 5114, install the following versions of NI-SCOPE.
NI PXI-5114
NI PCI-5114
NI PXIe-5114
You can download NI-SCOPE from the Instrument Driver Network at
NI-SCOPE supports programming the
programming languages. However, only LabVIEW and C are supported for the
section.
NI-SCOPE includes all the functions and attributes necessary for calibrating the NI 5114.
LabVIEW support is installed in
function palette. For LabWindows
provides further help on the functions available in CVI. Refer to Table 2 for installed file
locations.
Calibration functions are LabVIEW VIs or C function calls in the NI-SCOPE driver. The C
function calls are valid for any compiler capable of calling a 32-bit DLL. Many of the functions
use constants defined in the
in your code when you write the calibration procedure.

For more information on the calibration VIs and functions, refer to the NI-SCOPE Function
Reference Help or the NI-SCOPE LabVIEW Reference Help. These references can be found in
the NI High-Speed Digitizers Help. Refer to the NI-SCOPE Readme for the installed locations
of these documents.
