NI 6238/6239 PGIA
Analog input ground-reference setting
refers to the reference that the PGIA
measures against. Differential is the only ground-reference setting for NI
6238/6239 analog input signals, which means that the PGIA always
measures the voltages between AI + and AI – generated across the input
sense resistor, regardless of which analog input connection method is used.
Refer to the
Connecting Analog Current Input Signals
section for allowable
input connection methods.
When measuring voltages internal to the device, such as the onboard
reference, the signal is measured against AI GND. This measurement
method is called
referenced single-ended
(RSE). The name is derived from
the fact that one end of the measurement, the positive input of the PGIA, is
connected to a signal, and the negative input of the PGIA is connected to
the AI GND reference.
Table 4-2 shows how signals are routed to the NI-PGIA.
Note
On devices that allow multiple ground-reference settings, the settings are
programmed on a per-channel basis.
