PXI-5122 Cal Exec Problem

[JerryC]

I am currently using Calibration Executive Version 3.2.2 to calibrate a PXI-5122 Digitizer card.

During the automatic calibration procedure, I am having an issue with one of the steps - Verify Vertical Gain Accuracy on Channel x.

I am prompted to enter, for example, 0.09Vpp @ 0.00Hz.

How is this possible?

I am using a Datron 4707 calibrator. 

I have looked through the PXI-5122 calibration procedure (pdf), but this document does not relate to the procedure used by CalExec.

Hi JerryC,

Can you answer a few questions to further explain the situation you are in:

Are you getting any error messages? if so, what are they?

Does the "Verify Vertical Gain Accuracy on Channel x" step prompt for the same values each time, or does it change?

And in what way does the clibration proceedure document for the 5122 differ to the proceedure CalExec uses?

thanks

Hi JerryC,

As you well know .09Vpp @ 0Hz is not possible. Simply switch your Datron 4707 to DC and input .09VDC.

Thanks,

Chris
