NI 9229/9239 Calibration Procedure

3.

Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 to the system safety ground.
a.

Attach a ring lug to a 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire.

b.

Connect the ring lug to the ground terminal on the side of the NI cDAQ-9178 using 
the ground screw.

c.

Attach the other end of the wire to the system safety ground.

4.

Install the NI 9229/9239 in slot 8 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis. Leave slots 1 through 7 of 
the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis empty.

5.

Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to your host computer.

6.

Connect the power source to the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis.

7.

Launch Measurements & Automation Explorer (MAX).

8.

Right-click the device name and select 

Self-Test

 to ensure that the device is working 

properly.

Verification

The following performance verification procedures describe the sequence of operation and 
provide test points required to verify the NI 9229/9239. The verification procedures assume 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 9229/9239.
1.

Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).

2.

Connect the NI 9229/9239 to the calibrator as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1.  

Accuracy Verification Connections

3.

Set the calibrator voltage to a Test Point value indicated in Tables or 5.

4.

Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).
