NI 5105 Calibration Procedure
6.
End the session and save the results using the niScope Cal End VI.
7.
Perform a self-calibration on the device after adjusting the DCM.
Self-Calibration
The NI 5105 includes precise internal circuits and references used during self-calibration to
adjust for time and temperature drift. The device gain, offset, flatness, and trigger timing 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
Always self-calibrate the device before you perform
. NI-SCOPE
includes self-calibration example programs for LabVIEW, CVI, and
Microsoft Visual C.
