Error 70043 (NIMC_calibrationOutOfRangeError) received doing self calibration on PXI 7350 motion controller

[Mikeupnorth]

I am using PXI 7350 motion controller to a UMI - 7772 to control a Motion Control Group servo motor (integrated motor/drive, AC).  I'm having problems setting up and want to check all the hardware.  Pin 1 (Analog out) of the UMI appears to be at 0.3V so I thought I'd check the 7350.  How do I check this controller's ADC?  I ran self-calibration and got the subject error.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

I forgot the text of the error message.  Here it is: 

"70043 (NIMC_calibrationOutOfRangeError).  The calibration target is out of range.  We can't reach the calibration target even with full scale caldac or minimum caldac."

So I wonder how to check the DAQ on the 7350 controller module I have.

Hi Mike,

That error indicates that an RMA is most likely neccessary and definitely recommended for proper operation.  It sounds like the onboard memory where the calibration constants are stored may be damaged.

Thanks Brandon.

I have received new controller via RMA as you recommend and all works fine. 

Thanks,

Mike
