Transducer Source Impedance

If the source impedance of the input device and associated cabling is too high, it will
affect the accuracy of the channel data word. Source impedance of 2000 ohms will
produce up to 0.01% of module error over and above the specified accuracy of the
module.

You can compensate for device impedance error by implementing the following
equation in your ladder program:

(R

where:

Vs = input device voltage

Rs = input device impedance

Rin = 1746-NI16 input impedance
