Adjustment Procedure
The NI 9205/9206 adjustment procedure adjusts the analog input
calibration constants. At the end of each adjustment procedure, the new
constants are stored in the external calibration area of the device EEPROM.
These values are password-protected, which ensures that you do not
accidentally access or modify any calibration constants adjusted by the
metrology laboratory. The default password is
NI
