NI 9215 open circuit voltage

Hello,

I am using NI 9215 for analog input of +10 to -10 V. I usually use three channels as a differential input. However, with nothing connected to the DAQ (all three channels disconnected), one of the channels read an open voltage of around -10 V while others read around 0 V. I was expecting all to be around -10 V. Can anyone suggest what this means and whether this indicate a problem with the module?

 

Thank you,

Dushyant.

I think there is no worth to discuss a module behavior under no connection.

Nobody guarantee all channel do same behavior under the situation.

 

Why don't you try to connect AI+ and AI-? It should read 0V on all channel.

It provides a prove that the module works correctly.
