Environmental noise can serio
u
sly affect the meas
u
rement acc
u
racy of the
device if yo
u
do not take proper care when r
u
nning signal wires between
signal so
u
rces and the device. The following recommendations mainly
apply to AI signal ro
u
ting to the device, as well as signal ro
u
ting in general.
Take the following preca
u
tions to minimize noise pick
u
p and maximize
meas
u
rement acc
u
racy:
•
Use differential AI connections to reject common-mode noise.
•
Use individ
u
ally shielded, twisted-pair wires to connect AI signals to
the device. With this type of wire, the signals attached to the positive
and negative inp
u
ts are twisted together and then covered with a shield.
Yo
u
then connect this shield only at one point to the signal so
u
rce
gro
u
nd. This kind of connection is req
u
ired for signals traveling
thro
u
gh areas with large magnetic fields or high electromagnetic
interference.
•
Ro
u
te signals to the device caref
u
lly. Keep cabling away from noise
so
u
rces. The most common noise so
u
rce in a PXI DAQ system is the
video monitor. Keep the monitor and the analog signals as far apart as
possible.
Use the following recommendations for all signal connections to the

R signal lines if they r

a close distance. To red

pling between lines,
separate them by a reasonable distance if they r

n the
lines at right angles to each other.

Protect signal lines from magnetic fields ca
