I posted this in the wrong forum last time so I will ty here next. We are getting analog voltage changes in Labview on several different inputs(NI 9381). It happens when we activate the NI 9481 relay module with a 24V DC signal to power a solenoid. Don't understand why this is happens or why it shows on three different inputs in LabVIEW but not when testing the points with a meter. The 24V is only sent from power supply through relay to solenoid. The inputs are all 4-20 mA signals converted to 1-5V by a 250 ohm resistor across the ckt. The inputs come from a LVDT, extensometer, and a load cell. We had to convert the signals to make them readable by the 9381 module that we already had.

No need to post in LabVIEW forum since LabVIEW isn't your problem.
