Chapter 3 Configuring Your SCXI Hardware and Software
Getting Started with SCXI 3-34 www.ni.com
SCXI-1520 Module
The SCXI-1520 is an 8-channel module used to interface with strain gauges
and strain-gauge-based sensors.
You can set the bridge excitation voltage, hardware null setting, filter cutoff
frequency, or shunt calibration settings on a per-channel basis through
software control. You can set the gain of each input channel through
LabVIEW or NI-DAQ. An onboard EEPROM contains gain and offset
calibration constants for each channel. NI-DAQ and LabVIEW
automatically use these constants to correct for amplifier gain and offset
errors when scaling data.
