Software

Calibrating the NI 9208 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx 9.1 or later on the calibration
system. You can download NI-DAQmx from
LabVIEW, LabWindows
NI-DAQmx you only need to install support for the application software that you intend to use.

  • Page 3 Install the NI-DAQmx driver software. Make sure the NI cDAQ-9178 power source is not connected. Install the NI 9208 in slot 8 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis. Leave slots 1 through 7 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis empty. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to your host computer.
  • Page 4 Verification The following performance verification procedure describes the sequence of operation and provides test points required to verify the NI 9208. The verification procedure assumes that adequate traceable uncertainties are available for the calibration references. Accuracy Verification Complete the following procedure to determine the As-Found status of the NI 9208.
  • Page 5 -0.020968 Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY). Repeat steps 5 through 7 with the ADC timing mode on the NI 9208 set to high-speed. Repeat steps 3 through 8 for each test point in Table 4. 10. Disconnect the calibrator from the device.
  • Page 6 Call the NI 9208 get C Series adjustment points function to obtain an array of recommended calibration currents for the NI 9208. Set the calibrator to a reference value determined by the array of recommended calibration currents. Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).
