Parameter

& Data Type

Enter

RevDiff

Code Value

Result (Reversing requires twice as much time to complete)

Constant

False 0

Signal is measured with the high side referenced to the low

True

≠0

A second measurement is made after reversing the inputs to cancel
offsets

MeasOfs

Constant

Code Value

Result the Ground offset voltage is subtracted from single
ended measurements.

False 0

Offset voltage is corrected from background calibration

True

≠0

Offset voltage is measured each scan

SettlingTime

Constant

The time in microseconds to delay between setting up a measurement (switching to the
channel, setting the excitation) and making the measurement. (1 microsecond resolution)

20,000 µS (reject 50 Hz noise)

Mult, Offset

Constant,
Variable,
Array, or
Expression

A multiplier and offset by which to scale the raw results of the measurement. See the
measurement description for the units of the raw result; a multiplier of one and an offset
of 0 are necessary to output in the raw units. For example, the TCDiff instruction
measures a thermocouple and outputs temperature in degrees C. A multiplier of 1.8 and
an offset of 32 will convert the temperature to degrees F.

This Instruction applies an excitation voltage, delays a specified time and then makes a
single ended voltage measurement. The result with a multiplier of 1 and an offset of 0 is
the ratio of the measured voltage divided by the excitation voltage.
