NI 9235/9236 Calibration Procedure
10. Acquire 10,000 points of data using the DAQmx Read VI, as shown in
the following table.
11. Average the readings that you acquired and record the result.
12. Clear the acquisition using the DAQmx Clear Task VI, as shown in the
following table.
13. Repeat steps 5 through 12, but this time in step 8 set the
AIBridgeShuntCalEnable property to TRUE to enable shunt
calibration for the channel.
14. Perform the following calculation using the results you recorded in
(

where
Result
SCE
= result with shunt calibration enabled
Result
SCD
= result with shunt calibration disabled
R
