If verifying an NI 4496/4498, compare this value to the appropriate limits in Table 3. The
average is the offset for channel AI 0 at the 0 dB gain setting.
If verifying an NI 4495, compare this value to the limits in Table 4. The average is the offset
for channel AI 0 at the 0 dB gain setting.
If verifying an NI 4492/4497/4499, compare this value to the appropriate limits in Table 5.
The average is the offset for channel AI 0 at the 0 dB gain setting, at the 204.8 kS/s sample
rate, in the selected coupling mode.
8.
Repeat steps 2 through 7 for each gain setting that your device supports. Refer to Table 6
for the gain settings supported by NI 449x devices. When performing step 2, adjust the gain
parameter appropriately.
