Software Requirements

Calibrating the SCXI-1503 requires installing NI-DAQmx 8.1 or later on the calibration system.

You can download NI-DAQmx from ni.com/downloads. NI-DAQmx 8.1 or later supports

self-calibration and external calibration in the LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, C/C++, C#, and

Visual Basic .NET application development environments (ADEs). When you install NI-DAQmx 8.1 or

later, you only need to install support for the ADE that you intend to use.

Documentation Requirements

For information about NI-DAQmx, and the SCXI-1503 module and SCXI-1306 terminal block, consult

the following documents:

•SCXI Quick Start Guide—provides instructions for installing and configuring SCXI chassis and

modules.

•SCXI-1503 User Manual (includes specifications)—includes detailed information and published

specifications for the SCXI-1503.

•SCXI-1306 Terminal Block Installation Guide—includes detailed information and published

specifications for the SCXI-1306.

•NI-DAQmx Help—includes information about creating applications that use NI-DAQmx.

•NI-DAQmx C Reference Help—includes information about the functions in the driver.

You can find the latest versions of the documentation at ni.com/manuals.

Calibration Interval

National Instruments recommends a calibration interval of one year for the SCXI-1503. You should

adjust the recommended calibration interval based on the measurement accuracy demands of your

application.

Test Equipment

National Instruments recommends using the equipment in Table 1 for adjusting and verifying the

SCXI-1503.

Test Conditions

The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the SCXI-1503 meets

published specifications.

• Keep connections to the module as short as possible. Long cables and wires act as antennae, which

can pick up extra noise that affects measurements.

• Verify that all connections to the calibration system are secure.

• Maintain an ambient temperature of 25 ±10 °C. The SCXI-1503 module temperature will be

greater than the ambient temperature. If you plan to operate the SCXI-1503 at a specific

temperature outside this range, calibrate the module at that temperature.

• Keep relative humidity below 80%.

SCXI-1503 Calibration Procedure 4 ni.com

• Allow a warm-up time of at least 30 minutes to ensure that the measurement circuitry is at a stable

operating temperature.

• Use shielded copper wire for all cable connections to the SCXI-1306 terminal block. Use

twisted-pair wire to eliminate noise and thermal offsets.

• Ensure that the SCXI chassis empty slots contain front and rear filler panels.

• Plug the SCXI chassis, computer, and the instrument standard into the same power strip to avoid

ground loops.

Calibration Procedures

The calibration process includes the following steps:

1. Initial Setup—Install the module and configure it in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

2. Self-Calibration—Adjust the self-calibration constants of the module.

3. Verification—Verify the existing operation of the module. This step confirms whether the module

is operating within the published specifications prior to adjustment.

4. Adjustment—Adjust the calibration constants of the module. The adjustment procedure

automatically stores the calibration date on the EEPROM. Go to ni.com/calibration for

information about returning a module to NI for a factory calibration.

5. Reverification—Repeat the verification procedure to ensure that the module is operating within the

published specifications after adjustment.

These procedures are described in more detail in the following sections.

Refer to the DAQ Getting Started Guides and the SCXI Quick Start guide for information about how to

install the software and hardware, and how to configure the module in MAX. Figure 1 shows a typical

Self-Calibration

The SCXI-1503 includes precise internal circuits and references used during self-calibration to adjust

for any errors caused by short-term fluctuations in the environment.

Note Allow a 30 minute warm-up period before you begin self-calibration.

You can initiate self-calibration from MAX.

MAX

To initiate self-calibration from MAX, complete the following steps:

1. Launch MAX.

2. Select My System»Devices and Interfaces»NI-DAQmx Devices.

Note NI-DAQmx Devices is not displayed when using NI-DAQmx 9.0 or later.

3. Select the DAQ device you are using to digitize the SCXI-1503.

4. Initiate self-calibration in one of the following ways:

•ClickSelf-Calibrate in the upper right corner of the window. If the Self-Calibrate button is

not displayed, click the »button.

• Right-click the module and select Self-Calibrate from the context menu.

5. Select the chassis containing the module you want to calibrate.

6. Select the module that you want to calibrate.

7. Initialize a self-calibration of the module you want to calibrate.

Verification

This section provides instructions for verifying the following SCXI-1503 specifications:

• Analog input.

• Excitation current.

Note Limits in Table 2 are based on the March 2007 edition of the SCXI-1503 User Manual, which

includes the specifications. Refer to ni.com/manuals to determine if there is a more recent edition

of the specifications. If a more recent edition of the specifications is available, recalculate the limits

based upon the latest specifications.

Verifying the Analog Input

Complete the following steps to verify the analog input of the SCXI-1503:

1. Connect the calibrator ± output to all of the SCXI-1306 AI± input channels.

Note Ensure that all switches on the SCXI-1306 are in the off position as shown in Figure 3.

2. Insert the NB1 ribbon cable into the breakout connector on the SCXI-1349.

3. Insert the SCXI-1349 into the SCXI-1503 rear connector.

4. Insert the other end of the NB1 ribbon cable into the CB-50 ribbon cable connector.

5. Connect the DMM V+ to pin 3 and DMM V- to pin 4 of the CB-50 terminal accessory. Refer to

Figure 4 for pin locations.

Figure 4. CB-50 Terminal Accessory Wiring Diagram for Connection to DMM

6. Configure an AI voltage channel with an input range of ±10 V for channel ai0 on the

NI PCI(e)/PXI(e) DAQ device.

7. Use DAQmx properties to read the AI dev scaling coefficients of the DAQ device. E Series have

two scaling coefficients while M Series and X Series have four scaling coefficients. Record the

first two scaling coefficients and save the values as a0and a1.

Note The DAQ device scaling coefficients, a0and a1, are the same for each channel on the SCXI

module since the DAQ device multiplexes all SCXI channels to channel ai0 on the DAQ device.

8. Clear the task.

9. Configure the calibrator to output a DC voltage. Table 2 shows the test point values.

10. Create an AI voltage channel with an input range of ±10 V for one channel on the SCXI-1503.

11. Configure the SCXI-1503 input channel for a finite acquisition with a sample rate of 1000 Hz and

1000 samples per channel.

12. Use DAQmx properties to set a gain of 1.

13. Use DAQmx properties to read the DAQ device scaling coefficients. E Series have two scaling

coefficients while M Series and X Series have four scaling coefficients. Record the first two scaling

coefficients and save the values as b0and b1.

14. Start the task to set the channel MUX to the specified channel.

15. Use the saved device scaling coefficients from the DAQ device, a0and a1from step 7, and the

combined DAQ device and SCXI-1503 module, b0and b1from step 13, to compute the device

scaling coefficients for just the SCXI-1503, c0and c1.

16. Configure the DMM to measure voltage at the CB-50 outputs and take a measurement.
