NI 9215 Calibration Procedure

6.

Launch Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

7.

Right-click the device name and select 

Self-Test

 to ensure that the module is working 

properly.

Verification

The following performance verification procedure describes the sequence of operation and test 
points required to verify the NI 9215 and 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 9215.
1.

Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).

2.

Connect the NI 9215 to the calibrator. Refer to Figure 1 for a connection diagram for the 
NI 9215 with screw and refer to Figure 2 for a connection diagram for the NI 9215 with 
BNC.
