Reading 100ohm RTD with PXIe-4357

Hi guys, 

 

I am trying to setup a 1000ohm RTD with the 4357 and am getting weird errors. 

 

From the user manual I see that the maximum resistance that the card can measure is 400 for the resistance task type. Does this also mean that the card is incapable of measuring 1000ohm RTDs?

Misbah, I have made tons of RTDs measurements with this card and others. I am asking specifically if this card supports 1000Ohm RTDs or maxes out at 400Ohms. 

 

Can you answer that for me? 

 

Thanks.

Hi 

 

In the spec sheet it says the 4357 can only utilize up to 400ohms RTD so it's not compatible with 1000ohm RTDs.
