You also can connect floating signals to the NI 9237. If you
connect floating signals to the NI 9237, NI recommends
connecting the EX- signal to the earth ground or shield for better
noise rejection.
Bridge Calibration
When you insert or remove a new sensor from the NI 9237, slight
changes in the excitation voltages can cause a mismatch between
the internal half-bridge completion resistors and the half-bridge
sensors, which results in a change in the measurement offsets. NI
recommends performing bridge calibrations of quarter- or half-
bridge sensors after connecting all sensors to the NI 9237 and
