DAQ voltage reading

[fadetoblack]

Hello

I´m using a NI USB-6211 to acquire voltage. I´m using voltage probes with atenuation in order to measure values above the limit of +-10V.

The problem is:

- The value that I read in Labview (RSE, continuous samples... just a straightforward reading) is not sensitive to atenuation

This means that when I´m reading 8V without atenuation (confirmed with voltmeter at the pins of the daq board) I'm reading 8V -> Correct

When I use an atenuation of 10x and reading 0.8V at the pins of the daq board with the voltmeter, I still read 8V in Labview -> Incorrect

Hope that my question is understandable

Thanks in advance

Hi,

how is this question related to CVI? If it is related to Labview, please post the question in the appropriate forum.

Sorry...I am kind of newbie in this forum...

I did not notice that there were different subforums

Thanks for the advise
