Chapter 4 Analog Input
© National Instruments 4-3 X Series User Manual
MIO X Series devices use a calibration method that requires some codes
(typically about 5% of the codes) to lie outside of the specified range. This
calibration method improves absolute accuracy, but it increases the nominal
resolution of input ranges by about 5% over what the formula shown above
would indicate.
Choose an input range that matches the expected input range of your signal.
A large input range can accommodate a large signal variation, but reduces
the voltage resolution. Choosing a smaller input range improves the voltage
resolution, but may result in the input signal going out of range.
For more information about setting ranges, refer to the NI-DAQmx Help or
the LabVIEW Help.
Table 4-1 shows the input ranges and resolutions supported by each MIO
X Series device.
