Do

 not

 operate this equipment in a manner that contradicts the information specified in this 

document. Misuse of this equipment could result in a shock hazard.

Do 

not

 substitute parts or modify equipment. Because of the danger of introducing 

additional hazards, do

 not

 install unauthorized parts or modify the device. Return the 

device to National Instruments for service and repair to ensure that its safety features 
are not compromised.

You 

must

 insulate all of your signal connections to the highest voltage with which the 

TB-2705 can come in contact.

Connections, including power signals to ground and vice versa, that exceed any of the 
maximum signal ratings on the terminal block can create a shock or fire hazard, or can 
damage any or all of the boards connected to the host computer, and the terminal block. 
National Instruments is 

not 

liable for any damages or injuries resulting from incorrect 

signal connections.

Clean the module and accessories by brushing off light dust with a soft non-metallic brush. 
Remove other contaminants with a stiff non-metallic brush. The unit 

must 

be completely 

dry and free from contaminants before returning it to service.

Signal Descriptions

Table 1 describes the E Series signals available on the TB-2705. Table 2 
describes the waveform generation signals.

Analog Input Ground—These 
terminals are the reference point for 
single-ended measurements in RSE 
configuration and the bias current 
return point for differential 
measurements. All three ground 
references—AIGND, AOGND, and 
DGND—are connected together on 
your E Series device.
