NI 5922 Calibration Procedure
Documentation
Consult the following documents for information about the NI 5922 and your application
software. All documents are available on
and help files install with the software.
Self-Calibration Procedures
The NI 5922 includes precise internal circuits and references used during self-calibration to
adjust for time and temperature drift. The oscilloscope gain, offset, and flatness are all corrected
in self-calibration. Measuring the accuracy of these internal calibration circuits with another
instrument during external calibration provides traceability for the verification procedure.
Absolute accuracy is ensured by compensating for any error measured in the internal references.
Note
Self-calibrate the oscilloscope before you perform verification. NI-SCOPE
includes self-calibration example programs for LabVIEW, CVI, and
Microsoft Visual C.
You can initiate self-calibration using Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), using the
Scope Soft Front Panel (SFP), or programmatically using NI-SCOPE.
