PCI-1720 User's Manual
If a floating signal source is connected to the differential input
channel, the signal source may exceed the common-mode signal
range of the PGIA, and the PGIA will be saturated with erroneous
voltage-readings. You must therefore reference the signal source to
the AIGND.
Figure 3-4 shows a differential channel connection between a floating
signal source and an input channel on the PCI-1713 card. In this
figure, each side of the floating signal source is connected through a
resistor to the AIGND. This connection can reject the common-mode
voltage between the signal source and the PCI-1713 card ground.
