JSFlow,
The DC reading rates in the
NI 4070/4072 Specifications on page 1 apply to resistance measurements. 300 Ohms would require you to set the DMM to the 1 kohm range. To get accuracy down to +/- 0.01 ohms in the 1 kohm range, you would need to use 6 1/2 digit resolution, since you need accuracy down to the 6th digit of the selected range.
In addition, if you are concerned about cable length compensation when doing your measurement, you should use 4-wire resistance measurement mode, as this mode compensates for errors due to cable length.
Sincerely,
Ross C
