Wiring TEDS Channels The NI USB-9219 supports only Class II TEDS sensors. Connect the two TEDS lines to TEDS Data (T+) and TEDS COM (T–) and ensure that neither T+ nor T– is tied in common to any of the signal inputs (terminals 3 through 6) on the NI USB-9219.

NI USB-9219 Timing Options The NI USB-9219 supports four different timing options that are optimized for different types of applications by using different ADC conversion times. High Speed is optimized for high speed at the expense of noise rejection, Best 60 Hz Rejection is optimized for rejection of 60 Hz noise, Best 50 Hz Rejection is optimized for rejection of 50 Hz noise, and High Resolution is optimized for maximum overall noise rejection and provides good rejection of 50 Hz and 60 H

4-Wire Resistance and 4-Wire RTD Modes 4-Wire Resistance and 4-Wire RTD modes source a current, which varies based on the resistance of the load, between the EX+ and EX– terminals. The measured resistance is computed from the resulting voltage reading. These modes are not affected by lead wire resistance because a negligible amount of current flows across the HI and LO terminals due to the high input impedance of the ADC. Refer to Figure 12 for an illustration of the connections. Wire EX+

2-Wire Resistance and Quarter-Bridge Modes In 2-Wire Resistance and Quarter-Bridge modes, connect the two ends of the resistor or gauge to the NI USB-9219 across the HI and LO terminals. These modes source a current, which varies based on the resistance of the load, between the HI and LO terminals. The resulting resistance is computed from the voltage measurement. 2-Wire Resistance and Quarter-Bridge modes do not compensate for lead wire resistance. Refer to Figure 14 for an illustration o

Thermocouple Mode In Thermocouple mode, connect the positive end of the thermocouple to HI and the negative end of the thermocouple to LO. This mode uses the ±125 mV range of the ADC to return a voltage reading. Use shielded cables and twisted-pair wiring and ground the shielded cables. Each channel has a built-in thermistor for cold-junction compensation (CJC) calculations. For improved CJC sensor accuracy, operate the NI USB-9219 in a stable temperature environment and avoid placing heat
