Software

Calibrating the NI 9212 requires the installation of NI-DAQmx 15.1 or later on the calibration

system. You can download NI-DAQmx from ni.com/downloads. NI-DAQmx supports

LabVIEW, LabWindows™/CVI™, ANSI C, and .NET. When you install NI-DAQmx, you only

need to install support for the application software that you intend to use.

Documentation

Consult the following documents for information about the NI 9212, NI-DAQmx, and your

application software. All documents are available on ni.com and help files install with the

software.

Connecting the NI 9212

The NI CAL-9212 eases the calibration process by providing a thermocouple connection that is

internally routed to all eight thermocouple channels, as well as input and sense connections to

two CJC channels. Refer to Figure 1 for a pinout of the NI CAL-9212.

Caution Do not connect voltages greater than 10 VDC to the NI CAL-9212.

Figure 1. NI CAL-9212 Pinout

Connect the NI CAL-9212 to the NI 9212 front connector as shown in Figure 2. Tighten the

two jackscrews on the NI CAL-9212 to hold it securely in place. Do not overtighten the

jackscrews.

Test Conditions

The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the NI 9212 meets

published specifications.

• Keep connections to the NI 9212 as short as possible. Long cables and wires act as

antennas, picking up extra noise that can affect measurements.

• Verify that all connections to the NI 9212 are secure.

• Use shielded copper wire for all cable connections to the NI 9212. Use twisted-pairs wire

to eliminate noise and thermal offsets.

• Maintain an ambient temperature of 23 °C ±5 °C. The NI 9212 temperature will be greater

than the ambient temperature.

• Keep relative humidity below 80%.

• Allow a warm-up time of at least 15 minutes to ensure that the NI 9212 measurement

circuitry is at a stable operating temperature.

Initial Setup

Refer to the NI cDAQ-9174/9178 Quick Start for information about how to install the software

and hardware and how to configure the device in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

Complete the following steps to set up the NI 9212.

1. Install NI-DAQmx.

Note Ensure that you install NI-DAQmx 15.1 or later. Calibrating the NI 9212

using NI-DAQmx 14.5 or earlier may result in inaccurate readings.

2. Make sure the NI cDAQ-9178 power source is not connected.

3. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 to the system safety ground.

a. Attach a ring lug to a 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire.

b. Connect the ring lug to the ground terminal on the side of the NI cDAQ-9178 using

the ground screw.

c. Attach the other end of the wire to the system safety ground.

4. Install the module in slot 8 of the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis. Leave slots 1 through 7 of the

NI cDAQ-9178 chassis empty.

5. Connect the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to your host computer.

6. Connect the power source to the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis.

7. Launch Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).

8. Right-click the device name and select Self-Test to ensure that the module is working

properly.
