On the front panel, locate the numeric control labeled 

AO Voltage (bits)

. Right-click the control, 

select 

Replace

 from the shortcut menu, and select 

Knob

 from the 

Express»Numeric Controls

 

palette to change the control type to knob.

10. On the front panel, click and highlight the value in the lower limit of the knob to change the limit 

to –

32000

. Click and highlight the value in the upper limit to change the limit to 

32000

.

11. Save the VI.

12. Using the terminal block, connect analog output channel 0 to analog input channel 0 

by wiring AI0+ (RMIO pin 68) to AO0 (RMIO pin 55) and AI0– (RMIO pin 34) to 
AOGND0 (RMIO pin 21), respectively.

13. Click the 

Run

 button in 

Analog Input (Host).vi

 and adjust the knob that controls analog output 

channel 0. Notice how the change in voltage affects the reading on analog input channel 0.
