Bill, Mike, OP that device is a 6356 !  RSE is not an option it only supports differential AI DAQmx will probably throw an error.  Connect the gnd to pin 3 an pin 5 the AI signal to pin 4 the AO to pin 16 AI and AO gnds are internally connected.

That's cool. The OP suggested that the wire runs were going to be long, so the measurements should be differential. I don't know what signal levels are that he's working with, but long wires and RSE spell trouble.

Mike...

That's good to know.  I didn't look at any details on the 6356.  I would've assumed all DAQ devices had a single ended mode, and since that is how it appeared to be wired.

Once I saw AI1- not AI9 on the label I thought I'd better check the spec.

Hello. That's mean the sensor GND connect to pin 3 and 5. The sensor out will connect to pin 4. How about the sensor +v connect to?

That connection is fine as is
