Calibration Process
Before you can use PCLD-8811 to acquire data cor-
rectly, you must have offset and gain calibration.
Disconnect PCLD-8810 and open the DAQNavi to
view the Device as Figure 1 .
1. Select Device Setting and click Analog
Calibration.
2. Click Adjust Reference Voltage first and then
click Auto Calibration Procedure to finish
auto calibration.
Offset Calibration
Connect PCIE-1816H to the PCLD-8810, and
PCLD-8811 need to be installed onto which channel
you want to calibrate AI 15 connect to AGND on
PCLD-8810.
2. Input a 4.999V to AI15 and Adjust VR4 until the
value approach to 4.999.
NOTE: please adjust VR3 if the channel number is
Even. (e.g. 0,2,4, ...)
Gain Calibration
After offset calibration finished, please execute gain
calibration as follow:
1. Click Device Setting and Setting Connect
Type and Value Range Type of AI Chan-
nel.
1. Click Instant AI.
2. Setting ChanStart =15 and ChanCount =1
3. Click Start to continuously acquire data of AI 15.
4. Adjust VR2 until the value approach to 0.000.
NOTE: please adjust VR1 if the channel number is
Even. (e.g. 0,2,4, ...)
