8. Call niFgen ni5433 Timebase Cal Adjust with the following settings:

• Measured Frequency: Frequency of the waveform present on the connected

channel of the PXIe-5413 and measured by the oscilloscope in the previous step

9. If the Timebase Cal Complete output of niFgen ni5433 Timebase Cal Adjust returns

FALSE, repeat steps 5 through 8 until Timebase Cal Complete returns TRUE.

Note Timebase adjustment is only required on one channel of the two-channel

PXIe-5413.

Adjusting DC Voltage

Follow this procedure to adjust the DC voltage of the PXIe-5413.

1. Connect one end of the SMA (m)-to-BNC (m) cable to a channel of the PXIe-5413.

Connect the other end to the double banana plug-to-BNC (f) adapter, and connect the

double banana plug-to-BNC (f) adapter to the HI and LO connectors of the DMM.

Note DC voltage adjustment can be performed on either channel of the two-

channel PXIe-5413.

2. Call niFgen ni5433 ADC Cal Initialize with the following settings:

• Channel: Channel of the PXIe-5413 connected to the DMM

3. Call niFgen ni5433 ADC Cal Configure to obtain the Approximate Voltage Generated

) output.

4. Wait 1 second for settling.

5. Configure the DMM with the following settings:

• Function: DC Voltage

• Resolution: 7.5 digits

• Aperture time: 100 ms

• Number of averages: 4

• Auto zero: Enabled

• ADC calibration: Enabled

• Range: Range returned by the Approximate Voltage Generated (V

pk-pk

) output of

niFgen ni5433 ADC Cal Configure in step 3

6. Measure the voltage of the signal using the DMM.

7. Call niFgen ni5433 ADC Cal Adjust with the following settings:

• Measured Voltage: Voltage of the waveform present on the connected channel of

the PXIe-5413 and measured by the DMM in the previous step

8. If the ADC Cal Complete output of niFgen ni5433 Timebase Cal Adjust returns FALSE,

repeat steps 3 through 7 until ADC Cal Complete returns TRUE.

Note DC voltage adjustment is only required on one channel of the two-channel

PXIe-5413.
