Measuring thermistor with SCXI 1100 and 1124

[aeslaughter98]

I need to measure a thermistor using an SCXI 1100 w/ 1303, using a SCXI 1124 w/1325 for the excitation source.  Can anyone help me set this up.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hello Andrew,

For help with the basics of setting up an SCXI system, you may want to look here:

Getting Started with SCXI

For help setting up the SCXI-1100 for analog input, refer to the following manual:

SCXI-1100 User Manual and Specifications

And finally, for more information on setting up the SCXI-1124, please view the following:

SCXI-1124 User Manual and Specifications

Hopefully this information will help you with setup.  Once you have installed the hardware correctly and connected your thermistors, you should be able to use NI Measurement & Automation Explorer to verify that you are getting valid readings.  To do this, open Measurement & Automation Explorer, found in Windows under Program Files >> National Instruments.  Then navigate in the Configuration Tree to My System >> Devices and Interfaces >> NI-DAQmx Devices, right click on the SCXI-1100, and select Test Panels.

I hope this is helpful to you.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
