Hi,
I have a couple of questions about PCI-4060. One of the 4060 manuals says, "The required warm-up time for the NI 4060 is 30 minutes. This warm-up time is important because measurements made with the NI 4060 multimeter can change with temperature. This change is called a thermal drift and is influenced by temperature coefficients. To minimize the effects of thermal drift and ensure the specified accuracies, take all measurements after the NI 4060 has had a chance to fully warm up". Is this warm up period the time after you boot the computer or the time one should wait after you first access the DMM through VIs ? Please clarify.
AND a SCXI manual says,
"The fastest scan rate for the SCXI-1127 is 100 scans/s, and the fastest scan rate for t
he SCXI-1128 is 1000 scans/s. Typically, when using a DMM to make accurate measurements, the DMM requires hundreds of milliseconds. Consequently, the DMM becomes the limiting factor in determining the scan rate."
How many milliseconds should we wait for next scan, if we use the SCXI 1127/1128 in SCANNER mode. Should this time be specified in 'Sample Interval' parameter (in Ni DMM Configure Multipoint Vi) or as the 'Maximum time' for the measurements (in Ni DMM Fetch Multipoint Vi)?
