6034E 16 bits or 15bits

[Simeon]

Hi!

I have a PCI6034E DAQ card and I would like to know if there is some way
to read only positive or negative data getting the 16 bits value.
I mean, the readings i get are 15 bits for the reading value and 1 bit for
the sign (positive o negative).

May I extend that bit for reading values?

Thank you

What you are looking for is a board with a unipolar range. The 6034E only has 4 bipolar ranges, so what you would like to do is not possible with that particular board.

Many other boards do have unipolar ranges such as the 6030E, 6040E, 6052E, most M Series boards, and others.
