[lalit]

hi all 

 i have scxi1102 with scxi1303 terminal block. i have a pressure transducer which give a 4-20 mA output. i need to take reading with this module. i have tried using the std program given in labview help but it doent work .. can anyone suggest something

its urgent for me.

Hello lalit,

I've got a couple things to mention.  First, your SCXI module can measure voltage only.  So you will need to put your transducer current output across a resistor, and measure the voltage across the resistor.  I would also suggest using Measurement & Automation explorer to test your inputs before you move to a LabVIEW program.
