NI 9218 Calibration Procedure
Bridge Accuracy Verification, 22 mV/V mode
Complete the following steps to verify the full-bridge accuracy of an NI 9218.
1.
Connect a resistor network to the NI 9218 and two DMMs as shown in Figures 6, 7, or 8
for the appropriate test point value indicated in Table 17. Observe the following conditions
when connecting the equipment to the NI 9218.
•
Connect the leads of DMM2 as close as possible to the AI+ and AI- terminals on the
NI 9982.
•
Connect the leads of DMM1 as close as possible to the RS+ and RS- leads of the
NI 9982.
