Tie AI 0+, AI 1+, AI 2+, and AI 3+ together.

Tie AI 0-, AI 1-, AI 2-, and AI 3- together.

7.

Without closing the Bank 1 session, complete Steps 3 through 5 for Bank 2 using
FD11603-Bank2/ai0:3 as the physical channel.

8.

Close and commit both calibration sessions.

EEPROM Update

When an adjustment procedure is completed, the FieldDAQ device internal calibration
memory (EEPROM) is immediately updated.

If you do not want to perform an adjustment, you can update the calibration date and onboard
calibration temperature without making any adjustments:
1.

Call the DAQmx Initialize External Calibration function to start a calibration session on
the FieldDAQ device. The default password is 

NI

.

2.

Call the DAQmx Set Temperature FieldDAQ Calibration function to input the external
temperature in degrees Celsius.

3.

Call the DAQmx Close External Calibration function to end the session. Set the Action
input to Commit.

Reverification

Repeat 

Verification

 to determine the As-Left status of the device.

Note

 

If any test fails reverification after performing an adjustment, verify that you

have met all the conditions listed in 

Test Conditions

 before returning your device to

NI. Refer to 

Where to Go for Support

 for assistance in returning the device to NI.

Accuracy Under Calibration Conditions

The values in the following table are based on calibrated scaling coefficients, which are stored
in the onboard EEPROM.
