Test Conditions
The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the module meets published
specifications.
• Keep connections to the module as short as possible. Long cables and wires act as antennas, picking
up extra noise that can affect measurements.
• Use shielded wire for all cable connections to the module. Use twisted-pair wire to eliminate noise.
• Maintain an ambient temperature of 23 °C ±5 °C. The module temperature will be greater than the
ambient temperature.
• Keep relative humidity below 80%.
• Allow a warm-up time of 15 minutes to ensure that the measurement circuitry of the NI PXIe-4353
and CAL-4353 are at a stable operating temperature.
Note If you are using the Fluke 5520A, allow the calibrator to warm up for 30 minutes and maintain
an ambient temperature of 23 °C ±3 °C.1
• Ensure that the PXI Express chassis fan speed is set to HIGH, that the fan filters are clean, and that
the empty slots contain filler panels. For more information, refer to the Maintain Forced-Air
Cooling Note to Users document available at ni.com/manuals.
NI PXIe-4353 Calibration Procedure
This section provides instructions for verifying the voltage accuracy performance of the NI PXIe-4353.
The calibration process consists of the following steps:
1. Initial Setup for the NI PXIe-4353—Install the module and configure it in Measurement &
Automation Explorer (MAX).
2. Verifying Module Operating Temperature Changes—Verify that the current module operating
temperature will not cause you to incorrectly calibrate your module.
3. Verification Procedure—Verify the existing operation of the module. This steps confirms whether
the module is operating within its specified range and whether it needs adjustment.
4. Adjustment—If the module does not fall within the desired specifications, perform the adjustment
procedure. This will adjust the module calibration constants. If the module does fall within the
desired specifications, but the module has reached its calibration time interval since the last
calibration adjustment, perform the adjustment procedure. Otherwise, performing the adjustment
procedure is optional.
5. Reverification—Repeat the verification procedure to ensure that the module is operating within the
published specifications after adjustment.
The first four steps are explained in the following sections.
1 Refer to the Fluke 5520A user manual for the latest set up requirements and recommendations to achieve the best accuracy.

NI PXIe-4353 Calibration Procedure 4 ni.com
Initial Setup for the NI PXIe-4353
You must configure the module in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to communicate with
NI-DAQmx.
Complete the following steps to configure a module in MAX. Refer to the NI SC Express 4353
Installation Guide and Terminal Block Specifications for complete installation instructions.
1. Install the NI-DAQmx driver software.
Caution Always have the PXI Express chassis powered off when inserting a module.
2. Insert the module into an available slot in the PXI Express chassis.
3. Attach the CAL-4353 to the NI PXIe-4353.
Note The CAL-4353 must be within its calibration interval and if it is not, you must calibrate the
CAL-4353 before calibrating the NI PXIe-4353 module.
4. Power on the chassis.
5. Launch MAX.
6. Expand Devices and Interfaces to confirm that MAX detects the module and terminal block.
The terminal block should appear beneath its associated module.
7. Right-click NI PXIe-4353 and select Self-Test to ensure that the module is working properly.
Note You can also perform the self-test operation programmatically, using the DAQmx Self-Test
Device VI or the equivalent C/.NET functionality.
Verifying Module Operating Temperature Changes
A module operating temperature greater than ±10 °C since the previous calibration adjustment can
cause you to incorrectly calibrate your module. The onboard temperature sensor on the module can be
used to verify that this condition does not exist. Complete the following steps to compare the current
module temperature to the temperature measured during the last calibration.
1. Launch MAX.
2. Select My System»Devices and Interfaces»Chassis 1»NI PXIe-4353.
Note MAX assigns a chassis name for each chassis in an application. This document uses Chassis 1.
In your application, use the appropriate name assigned to your chassis by MAX.
3. Click the Calibration tab.
If the difference between the current operating temperature and the operating temperature from the
last calibration adjustment is greater than 10 °C, the limits in the calibration tables are not valid.
Note You can also query the temperatures programmatically, using the DAQmx Calibration Info
property node or the equivalent C/.NET functionality.
Note The temperature reading returned by the module is an internal temperature. Typically, the
internal temperature is approximately 10 °C warmer than the ambient temperature.
If the module temperature difference is outside the maximum range, you should choose one of the
following options:
• Recalculate the test limits to include the additional error due to temperature drift. Refer to the
NI PXIe-4353 Specifications for more information.
• Change the system so that the operating temperature will be closer to the temperature recorded
during the last calibration adjustment.

Test Limits
Tables 4 through 7 list the specifications that the NI PXIe-4353 module or NI PXIe-4353 and TB-4353
system should meet if it has been one year between calibrations. The following definitions describe how
to use the information from these tables:
•Test Point—The voltage value that is input or output for verification purposes. This value is broken
down into two columns, Location and Value. Location refers to where the test value fits within the
test range. Value refers to the voltage or temperature value to be verified. Max refers to maximum
value, Min refers to minimum value, and Mid refers to mid-scale.
•1-Year Limits—Contains the Upper Limits and Lower Limits for the test point value. That is, when
the module is within its 1-year calibration interval, the test point value should fall between these
upper and lower limit values.
