Connecting pressure-transmitter

Hi,

I (actually my boss, but who cares) bought a NI-DAQ-card type: PCI-MIO-16E-4
from NI. I want to use it in combination with LabView. What's the best
connection to get some good data from this transmitter.

By the way, I'm a mechanical Engineer, so please be carefull with me when
you're talking electronics...

Transmitter is:
Endress+Hauser
it needs a 11..30 VDC power supply,
2-wire type, 4..20mA output.

Do I have to use an external power supply? How do I best connect these
things?

To be more precise: I'd like to connect 3 of them...


Thanks,

Boozz.
