Insert the stripped end of the shielded signal wires fully into the appropriate terminal. Refer 
to the label next to each screw terminal to determine the function of the terminal. The 

NI PXIe-4304/4305 User Manual

 provides more detailed wiring information. Make sure no 

exposed wire extends past the screw terminal. Exposed wire increases the risk of a short 
circuit that can cause circuit failure.
