We are pleased to announce that the NI-9217 resistance temperature detector (RTD) analog input module can now be used with iTestSystem and NI CompactDAQ. The NI-9217 features 4 analog inputs, 24-bit resolution, and an aggregate sampling rate of 5 S/s (1.25 S/s per channel) in high accuracy mode. The high accuracy mode has built in 50/60 Hz noise rejection and less than a 1 °C accuracy error over its entire operating temperature range.
Tip: Since the NI-9217 is the first CompactDAQ RTD module on the compatibility list, a new RTD channel type was added to iTestSystem. Right click on Channels in the project tree and select Create New > RTD.

Here at Integrated Test & Measurement, we love diving into the nuts and bolts of how things work. While setting up a project using 120-ohm strain gages with the NI-9237 module, I found myself reflecting on the history and technical reasons why 120 ohms became the original standard for strain gages. As it turns out,…
