10. If calibrating a PXIe-4331, repeat steps 2 through 9 using a sample rate of 102.4 kHz.
11. Repeat steps 1 through 10 for each channel you want to verify.
Shunt Quarter-Bridge Calibration Accuracy Verification
This section provides instructions for verifying the PXIe-4330/4331 shunt quarter-bridge
calibration accuracy. Table 10 shows all settings for the PXIe-4330/4331. Throughout the shunt
quarter-bridge calibration accuracy verification, use Table 26 to determine if the module is
operating within its specified range. If the module is not operating within the specified values,
refer to the
Worldwide Support and Services
section for assistance in returning the
PXIe-4330/4331 to NI.
Complete the following steps to test the accuracy of the module shunt quarter-bridge calibration.
1.
Configure the switch modules to connect to the channel you want to verify. Refer to Table 5
for the specific switch column and row configuration. The connection paths are shown in
Figure 14 in
Appendix A: Connection Path Details
Note
Only one channel can be connected to the calibrator at a time.
2.
Set the calibrator output for 2-wire compensation (COMP 2-wire). This automatically
compensates for the lead wire resistance in series with the HI and LO terminals of the
calibrator.
3.
Set the calibrator resistance output to 120
Ω
, 350
Ω
, or 1000
Ω
, depending on the
quarter-bridge configuration you want to verify. This must match the configuration setting
made in step 7.
4.
Set the calibrator to operate mode (OPR).
5.
Create the DAQmx task.
6.
Create and configure an AI Bridge (V/V) channel.
7.
Configure the properties for the acquisition as described in Table 10.
