Install a clamp-on ferrite bead (782803-01) on the cable that you are

connecting to NI 9401.

The clamp-on ferrite bead must be connected to the cable as close to the

module as possible. Placing the ferrite elsewhere on the cable noticeably

impairs its effectiveness.

Special Conditions for Marine Applications

Some products are Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approved for marine (shipboard)

applications. To verify Lloyd’s Register certification for a product, visit 

ni.com/

certification

 and search for the LR certificate, or look for the Lloyd’s Register mark

on the product.

Caution

 In order to meet the EMC requirements for marine applications,

install the product in a shielded enclosure with shielded and/or filtered

power and input/output ports. In addition, take precautions when

designing, selecting, and installing measurement probes and cables to

ensure that the desired EMC performance is attained.

Preparing the Environment

Ensure that the environment in which you are using the NI 9401 meets the following

specifications.

Operating temperature

(IEC 60068-2-1, IEC 60068-2-2)

-40 °C to 70 °C

Operating humidity (IEC 60068-2-78)

10% RH to 90% RH, noncondensing
