How to plug a pressure transcucer to SCXI 1000?

I need to plug a pressure transducer to SCX 1000. But I can't see the device when I set the DAQ Acquire Signals in the Pressure. I set Voltage to test, it works. How can I find it in pressure signal? Or there is any way to transform voltage data to pressure data?

 

My pressure transducer is Ashcroft K1.

 

Thanks!

You should be able to convert the voltage to the pressure. It's generally a linear transformation, but you'll have to check the datasheet for your specific device to make sure of this. All you need to do is apply that scaling to the voltage input that you get, and you'll know the pressure.
