Software Requirements
Calibrating the FD-11601 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx on the calibration system. NI
recommends using the latest NI-DAQmx driver. Earliest driver support version for calibrating
the FD-11601 is listed in the following table.
Driver
NI-DAQmx
You can download NI-DAQmx from ni.com/downloads. NI-DAQmx supports many
programming languages, including LabVIEW, LabWindows
Basic .NET. When you install NI-DAQmx, you only need to install support for the application
software that you intend to use.

22 AWG signal wires Test Conditions The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the FD-11601 meets published specifications: • Keep connections to the device as short as possible. Long cables and wires act as antennas, picking up extra noise that can affect measurements. -
Page 4: Initial Setup
Initial Setup Complete the following steps to set up the FieldDAQ device. Install the software and NI-DAQmx driver as outlined in the FD-11601 Quick Start. Note You must install NI-DAQmx 19.0 or later for device calibration support. Set up the FieldDAQ device as outlined in the FD-11601 Quick Start. - Page 5 0.00105 Positive Full Scale 10.0 9.99525 10.00475 The test limits in this table are derived using the values listed in Accuracy Under Calibration Conditions.
