CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

PXIe-4480/4481

6-Channel, 24-bit, 1.25 MS/s DSA Analog Input

This document contains the verification and adjustment procedures for the PXIe-4480 and

PXIe-4481 Dynamic Signal Acquisition (DSA) analog input modules. The procedures for the

PXIe-4481 are a subset of those for the PXIe-4480, specifically with regards to the absence of

the charge measurement function, which is available on the PXIe-4480, but not the PXIe-4481.

However, for clarity, the adjustment procedures for each module are listed separately. For more

information about calibration solutions, visit ni.com/calibration.

Software

Calibrating the PXIe-4480/4481 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx on the calibration

system. NI-DAQmx 16.1 added driver support for the PXIe-4480/4481. For the list of devices

supported by a specific release, refer to the NI-DAQmx Readme, available on the

version-specific download page or installation media.

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.
