Not enough information.

 

What is the CB 68LP connected to?  You need to have a DAQ card connected to the CB 68LP. 

 

Most likely you will have an analog input channel that you can use.  But to use a voltage channel with a mA device you will need a resistor across the channel.  If you use a 250 ohm resistor 4 mA = 1 volt and 20 mA = 5 volts.

Then connect the voltage output to your CB-68LP.  When you set the channel up in MAX there will be a tab that shows you were to connect the wires for the specific channel.
