4.

Right-click the NI PXI-4204 and select 

Self-Calibrate

.

5.

A dialog box appears indicating that the NI PXI-4204 is 
self-calibrating.

6.

When the dialog box disappears, the NI PXI-4204 is successfully 
self-calibrated.

Note

The NI PXI-4204 also can be self-calibrated programmatically by using 

DAQmx 

Self Calibrate.vi

 in LabVIEW.

The results of an internal calibration are stored in the NI PXI-4204 flash 
memory so that the CalDACs are automatically loaded with the newly 
calculated calibration constants the next time the NI PXI-4204 is 
powered on.

Performing a self-calibration at the operating temperature of your 
application will ensure the NI PXI-4204 meets the specifications in 
Appendix A, 

Specifications

.

External Calibration

The NI PXI-4204 has an onboard calibration reference for the DAQ 
circuitry and the signal conditioning circuitry to ensure the accuracy 
of self-calibration. The specifications are listed in Appendix A, 

Specifications

. The reference voltages are measured at the factory and 

stored for subsequent internal calibrations. The voltages are stable enough 
for most applications, but if you are using the device at an extreme 
temperature or if the onboard references have not been measured for a year 
or more, you may want to externally calibrate the device. 

NI recommends 

an external calibration of the NI PXI-4204 once a year.

An external calibration refers to calibrating the device with a known 
external reference rather than relying on the onboard references. During the 
external calibration process, the onboard reference values are re-calculated. 
This compensates for any time or temperature drift related errors in the 
onboard references, which may have resulted since the last calibration. 
You can save the results of the external calibration process so that the 
new calibration constants are automatically loaded the next time the 
NI PXI-4204 is powered on. The NI PXI-4204 then uses the newly 
measured onboard references for subsequent internal calibrations.
