Software
Calibrating the NI 9224 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx 18.1 or later on the calibration
system.
You can download NI-DAQmx from ni.com/downloads. NI-DAQmx supports LabVIEW,
LabWindows™/CVI™, ANSI C, and .NET. When you install NI-DAQmx, you only need to
install support for the application software that you intend to use.
Documentation
Consult the following documents for information about the NI 9224, NI-DAQmx, and your
application software. All documents are available on ni.com and help files install with the
software.

Test Conditions
The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the device 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.
• Maintain an ambient temperature of 23 °C ± 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 15 minutes to ensure that the device measurement
circuitry is at a stable operating temperature.
Initial Setup
Complete the following steps to set up the NI 9224.
1. Install NI-DAQmx.
2. Make sure that the NI cDAQ-9178 power source is not connected to the chassis.
3. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to the system safety ground.
a) Attach a ring lug to a 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire.
b) Connect the ring lug to the ground terminal on the side of the NI cDAQ-9178 using
the ground screw.
c) Attach the other end of the wire to the system safety ground.
4. Install the module in slot 8 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis. Leave slots 1 through 7 of the
NI cDAQ-9178 chassis empty.
5. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to your host computer.
6. Connect the power source to the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis.
7. Launch Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).
8. Right-click the device name and select Self-Test to ensure that the module is working
properly.
Verification
The following performance verification procedure describes the sequence of operation and
provides test points required to verify the NI 9224. The verification procedure assumes that
adequate traceable uncertainties are available for the calibration references.
Accuracy Verification
Complete the following procedure to determine the As-Found status of the NI 9224.
1. Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).

3. Set the calibrator voltage to a Test Point value indicated in the NI 9224 Verification Test
Limits table.
4. Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).
5. Acquire and average samples for each channel.
a) Create and configure an AI voltage task according to the following NI 9224
Accuracy Verification Configuration table.

b) Configure the task timing according to the following NI 9224 Timing Configuration
table.

Sample Mode Samples Per Channel Rate (kS/s)
Finite Samples 100 1
c) Start the task.
d) Read the samples from the NI 9224.
e) Average the samples for each AI channel and record the average.
f) Stop and clear the task.
6. Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).
7. Compare the averaged samples to the limits in the NI 9224 Verification Test Limits table
to verify the input accuracy. If the value is within these limits, the device passes the test.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for each test point in the NI 9224 Verification Test Limits table.
9. Disconnect the calibrator from the device.

Note The test limits listed in the NI 9224 Verification Test Limits table are derived
using values from the NI 9224 Accuracy Under Calibration Conditions table.
Adjustment
The following performance adjustment procedure describes the sequence of operation required
to adjust the NI 9224.
Accuracy Adjustment
Complete the following procedure to adjust the accuracy performance of the NI 9224.

EEPROM Update
When an adjustment procedure is completed, the NI 9224 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 the
Worldwide Support and Services section for assistance in returning the device to NI.
Accuracy under Calibration Conditions
The values in the following table are based on calibrated scaling coefficients, which are stored
in the onboard EEPROM.
The following accuracy table is valid for calibration under the following conditions:
• Ambient temperature 23 °C ± 5 °C
• NI 9224 installed in slot 8 of an NI cDAQ-9178 chassis
• Slots 1 through 7 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis are empty
