Software

Calibrating the NI 9230/9232 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx on the calibration system.

Table 1 shows the necessary versions for each connector variation.

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 2 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 2.

Test Conditions

The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the NI 9230/9232

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 °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 10 minutes to ensure that the NI 9230/9232 measurement

circuitry is at a stable operating temperature.

Initial Setup

Complete the following steps to set up the NI 9230/9232.

1. Install NI-DAQmx.

2. Make sure the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis 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 chassis

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 procedures describe the sequence of operation and

provide test points required to verify the NI 9230/9232. The verification procedures assume 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 9230/9232.

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

2. Connect the NI 9230/9232 to the calibrator as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Accuracy Verification Connections

3. Set the calibrator voltage to a Test Point value indicated in Table 5.

4. Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).

5. Acquire and average samples of each channel.

a. Create and configure an AI voltage task on the NI 9230/9232 according to Table 3.

b. Configure the AI voltage task timing according to Table 4.

c. Start the task.

d. Average the samples acquired for each channel.

e. Stop and Clear the task.

6. Compare the average to the limits in Table 5.

Note The test limits listed in Table 5 are derived using the values in Table 7.

Note The uncertainty of the calibration standard is not included in these limits.

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

8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for each test point in Table 5.

9. Disconnect the calibrator from the device.

Adjustment

The following performance adjustment procedure describesthe sequence of operation required

to adjust the NI 9230/9232.

Accuracy Adjustment

Complete the following procedure to adjust the accuracy performance of the NI 9230/9232.

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

2. Connect the NI 9230/9232 to the calibrator as shown in Figure 1.

3. Adjust the NI 9230/9232.

a. Initialize a calibration session on the NI 9230/9232. The default password is NI.

b. Input the external temperature in degrees Celsius.

c. Call the NI 9230/9232 DAQmx Get C Series Calibration Adjustment Points function

to obtain an array of recommended calibration voltages for the NI 9230/9232.

d. Set the calibrator to a reference value determined by the array of recommended

calibration voltages.

e. Set the calibrator to Operate mode (OPR).

f. Call and configure the NI 9230/9232 adjustment function according to Table 6.

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

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

i. Close the calibration session.

4. Disconnect the NI 9230/9232 from the calibrator.

EEPROM Update

When an adjustment procedure is completed, the NI 9230/9232 internal calibration memory

(EEPROM) updates immediately.

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.

Accuracy Under Calibration Conditions

The following calibration specifications are valid under the following conditions:

• Ambient temperature 23 ±5 °C

• NI 9230/9232 installed in slot 8 of an NI cDAQ-9178 chassis

• Slots 1 through 7 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis are empty
