6.2 Calibration

In data acquisition processes, calibration of the measurement devices is very

important to maintain its accuracy. Users can calibrate the analog input

channels under the operating environment to optimizing the accuracy of the

9116 series card. The following section will guide you though the calibration

process for the 9116 series card.

Note: For an environment with frequently large fluctuations in temperature

and vibration, a 3 months re-calibration interval is recommended. For

laboratory conditions, 6 months to 1 year is acceptable.

6.2.1 What do you need
