Software

Calibrating the NI 9209 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx 15.1 or later on the calibration

system. You can download NI-DAQmx from ni.com/downloads. NI-DAQmx supports

LabVIEW, LabWindows™/CVI™, C/C++, C#, and Visual Basic .NET. When you install

NI-DAQmx you only need to install support for the application software that you intend to use.

Test Equipment

Table 1 lists the equipment recommended for the performance verification and adjustment

procedures. If the recommended equipment is not available, select a substitute using the

requirements listed in Table 1.

Test Conditions

The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the NI 9209 meets

published specifications.

• Keep connections to the device as short as possible. Long cables and wires act as antennas,

picking up extra noise that can affect measurements.

• Verify that all connections to the device are secure.

• Use shielded copper wire for all cable connections to the device. Use twisted-pairs wire to

eliminate noise and thermal offsets.

• Maintain an ambient temperature of 23 ± 5 °C. The device temperature will be greater than

the ambient temperature.

• Keep relative humidity below 80%.

• Allow a warm-up time of at least 10 minutes to ensure that the NI 9209 measurement

circuitry is at a stable operating temperature.

Initial Setup

Complete the following steps to set up the NI 9209.

1. Install NI-DAQmx.

2. Make sure the NI cDAQ-9178 power source is not connected.

3. Install the module in slot 8 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis. Leave slots 1 through 7 of the

NI cDAQ-9178 chassis empty.

4. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to your host computer.

5. Connect the power source to the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis.

f. Call and configure the NI 9209 gain instance of the adjustment function according to

Table 7 with the input terminal configuration set to Differential.

g. Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).

h. Repeat steps d through g for each calibration voltage in the array.

i. Repeat steps d through h for each channel.

j. Repeat steps d through i with the input terminal configuration set to

Single-Ended/RSE as shown in Figure 2.

k. Disconnect the calibrator from the NI 9209.

l. Short the voltage channels to the NI 9209 AIGND.

m. Call the DAQmx Adjust 9209 Offset Calibration for the physical channel(s) adjusted

in the RSE and Differential sections. For example, if you adjusted all the channels,

then the physical channels should be cDAQ1Mod8/ai0:31.

Note If adjusting the channel(s) in differential and single-ended mode, the physical

channel(s) should be a union of the channels specified in both configurations.

n. Close and commit the calibration session.

4. Remove the connections from the NI 9209.

EEPROM Update

When an adjustment procedure is completed, the NI 9209 internal calibration memory

(EEPROM) is immediately updated.

If you do not want to perform an adjustment, you can update the calibration date and onboard

calibration temperature without making any adjustments by initializing an external calibration,

setting the C Series calibration temperature, and closing the external calibration.

Reverification

Repeat the Verification section to determine the As-Left status of the device.

Note If any test fails Reverification after performing an adjustment, verify that you

have met the Test Conditions before returning your device to NI. Refer to Worldwide

Support and Services for assistance in returning the device to NI.
