NI 5450 Calibration Procedure
Software Requirements
Calibrating the NI 5152/5153/5154 requires installing the following
versions of NI-SCOPE on the calibration system.
You can download NI-SCOPE from the Instrument Driver Network at
ni.com/idnet
. NI-SCOPE supports programming the
section and
section in a number of programming languages;
however, only LabVIEW and C are supported for the
section.
NI-SCOPE includes all the functions and attributes necessary for
calibrating the NI 5152/5153/5154. LabVIEW support is installed in
niScopeCal.llb
, and all calibration functions appear in the function
palette. For LabWindows
™
/CVI
™
, the NI-SCOPE function panel
niScopeCal.fp
provides further help on the functions available in CVI.
Refer to Table 1 for installed file locations.
Calibration functions are LabVIEW VIs or C function calls in the
NI-SCOPE driver. The C function calls are valid for any compiler capable
of calling a 32-bit DLL. Many of the functions use constants defined in the
niScopeCal.h
file. To use these constants in C, you must include
niScopeCal.h
in your code when you write the calibration procedure.
For more information on the calibration VIs functions, refer to the
NI-SCOPE LabVIEW Reference Help
or the
NI-SCOPE Function
Reference Help
. These references can be found in the
NI High-Speed
Digitizers Help
. Refer to the
NI-SCOPE Readme
for the installed locations
of these documents.
