The functions that are required for externally calibrating the SCXI-1503 are
available in NI-DAQmx 8.1 or later. Refer to the NI-DAQmx Help for
details about these functions.
Most external calibration documents for SCXI modules are available to
download from
ni.com/calibration
by clicking Manual Calibration
Procedures. For external calibration of modules not listed there, Basic
Calibration Service or Detailed Calibration Service is recommended. You
can get information about both of these calibration services from
ni.com/calibration
. NI recommends performing an external
calibration once a year.
Note
Performing an external calibration of the SCXI-1503 permanently overwrites the
factory calibration settings, which impacts the accuracy of the inputs.
