NI PXIe-4304/4305 Calibration Procedure

Connecting the TB-4304

The TB-4304 provides connections for the PXIe-4304/4305. Figure 1 shows the pin assignments 
of the TB-4304.

Figure 1.

Each channel consists of two terminal connections specific to that channel as shown in Table 2. 
You can verify or adjust the accuracy for any or all channels depending on the desired test 
coverage. Refer to Figure 2 and only connect the input channels required for verification or 
adjustment in parallel.

Refer to Table 2 for the analog signal names of the TB-4304.

Complete the following steps to connect the TB-4304.
1.

Install the PXIe-4304/4305 and the TB-4304 in the PXI Express chassis according to the 
instructions in the 

NI PXIe-4304/4305 and TB-4304 User Guide and Terminal Block 

Specifications

.

2.

Configure the PXIe-4139 to voltage output mode and enable remote sensing. Connect the 
PXIe-4139 output to the TB-4304 as shown in Figure 2.
