SCC-A10 Voltage Attenuator Module User Guide

Using the SCC-A10 when Scaling Voltage Measurements

If you configured the SCC-A10 using Measurement & Automation 
Explorer (MAX) and you are using NI-DAQ, the voltage reading you get 
from the E Series DAQ device accounts for the voltage scaling effect of the 
SCC-A10. Otherwise, because the voltage measurement from the E Series 
DAQ device is one-tenth of the voltage applied at the SCC-A10 input, you 
must multiply the voltage reading from the E Series DAQ device by 10 to 
get the correct SCC-A10 input voltage.
