Software Requirements

No other software is required to verify the operation of the TB-4300B. All of the information

necessary to verify this terminal block is located in this calibration procedure.

Documentation Requirements

You may find the following document useful for reference. You can download the latest version

of this document from the NI Web site at ni.com/manuals.

• The NI SC Express 4300 Installation Guide and Terminal Block Specifications provides

instructions for installing and configuring the NI PXIe-4300 module and TB-4300/4300B

and includes terminal block specifications.

Calibration Interval

National Instruments recommends a calibration interval of five years for the TB-4300B. Verify

at the recommended interval based on the measurement accuracy demands of your application.

Test Equipment

National Instruments recommends that you use the instruments in Table 1 for adjusting and

verifying a TB-4300B.

Test Conditions

The following setup and environmental conditions are required to ensure the terminal block

meets published specifications.

• Keep connections to the device as short as possible. Long cables and wires can act as

antennae, which can pick up extra noise that affects measurements.

• Verify that all connections to the device are secure.

• Maintain the ambient temperature between 20 °C and 30 °C.

• Keep relative humidity below 80%.

• Allow at least 15 minutes warm-up time to ensure that the measurement circuitry is at a

stable operating temperature.

• Use shielded copper wire for all cable connections to the device. Use twisted-pair wire to

eliminate noise and thermal offsets.

Model Requirements

Calibrator Fluke 5700A If this instrument is unavailable, use a

high-precision voltage source with an accuracy of at

least 10 ppm for adjustment and at least 40 ppm for

verification. The source needs an output impedance

of less than or equal to 50 Ω.

DMM NI 4070 If this instrument is unavailable, use a multiranging

6½ digit DMM with an accuracy of at least 40 ppm

and an input impedance of >10 GΩ.

Verification Procedure

Complete the following steps to verify the attenuation ratio of the TB-4300B:

1. Loosen the top cover captive screws and remove the top cover while referring to Figure 1.

2. Remove the strain relief screws and the strain relief.

Figure 1. TB-4300B/CAL-4300B Assembly

Caution Make sure the TB-4300B has three keys installed in its connector and that

none of the keys are loose. The keying locations are shown in Figure 2. If any of the

three keys are missing or loose, refer to the Where to Go for Support section for

assistance in returning the terminal block to NI.

6. Set the calibrator to 60 V. Refer to Table 2 for Lower and Upper Limits.

7. After enabling the calibrator, allow the TB-4300B to warm up for a minimum of

15 minutes.

8. Connect the DMM to the output of AI0 on the CAL-4300B as shown in Figure 4. The

output voltage will be 1/30 of the input voltage; therefore, you must change the DMM range

accordingly.

Note If using an NI DMM or a DMM with a selectable impedance, set the input

impedance to >10 GΩ.

9. Measure the voltage output on the CAL-4300B using the DMM. Use Table 2 to verify that

the channel is within the limits.

If the temperature is outside those found in Table 2, you can calculate the lower and upper

limits as follows:

where Vin is the input voltage of 60 V.

Δt is the absolute temperature difference between the ambient temperature

and 25 °C.

10. Disconnect the DMM and connect it to the next channel.

11. Repeat steps 9 through 10 for all channels.

If the verification procedure determines that the TB-4300B is outside of the specifications, refer

to Where to Go for Support for assistance in returning the terminal block to NI.

Note: These limits assume the ambient temperature is between 20 °C and 30 °C and that the input

voltages are exactly as stated. If this is not the case, refer to the following text to calculate the limits. The

values were derived from information available in the NI PXIe-4300 and TB-4300B Installation Guide

and Terminal Block Specifications document.
