We have a NI-4351 to measure both the temperature and a voltage across a resistor. We have utilized two successive flat sequence structure frames, each containing an AI-Single Scan SubVI, to first scan the voltage off the thermocouple, and the second to scan the voltage off the resistor. Our voltage readings across the resistor are roughly 3V.
When we run our VI without scanning the resistor voltage, our temperature readings are correct. However, once we connect the voltage supply to a channel on the terminal board, we notice two things:
1) A constant error of 2500
2) The voltage readings across the thermocouples shoot up three magnitudes of error to approximately 0.08 volts
Would we need to separate the two scans into two separate buffers? If so, how would we do this?
Much Appreciated!!
