6. Compare the averaged samples to the limits in the 

NI 9231 Verification Test Limits

 table

to verify the input accuracy. If the value is within these limits, the device passes the test.

7. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for each test point in the 

NI 9231 Verification Test Limits

 table.

8. Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).
9. Repeat steps 1 through 8 for each channel on the NI 9231.

Adjustment

The following performance adjustment procedure describes the sequence of operation required

to adjust the NI 9231.

Accuracy Adjustment

Complete the following procedure to adjust the accuracy performance of the NI 9231.
1. Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).
2. Connect channel 0 of the NI 9231 to the calibrator as shown in the 

Accuracy Verification

section.

3. Adjust the NI 9231.

a) Initialize a calibration session on the NI 9231. The default password is 

NI

.

b) Input the external temperature in degrees Celsius.
c) Call the NI 9231 get C Series adjustment points function to obtain an array of

recommended calibration voltages for the NI 9231.

d) Set the calibrator to a reference value determined by the array of recommended

calibration voltages.

e) Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).
f) Call and configure the NI 9231 adjustment function according to 

NI 9231

Adjustment Configuration

 table.
