The gain and offset errors resulting from the source impedance of connectedthermocouples are negligible for most applications. Thermocouples with a higher leadresistance can introduce more significant | | NI 9211 DatasheetThermocouple Measurement AccuracyThermocouple measurement errors depend partly on the following factors: the type of thermocouple the accuracy of the thermocouple the temperature that you are measuring the resistance of the thermocouple wires the cold-junction temperatureFor the best accuracy performance, set up the NI 9211 according to the getting started guide on to minimize thermal gradients across the NI 9211 AccuracyHeat dissipated by adjacent C Series modules or nearby heat sources can cause errors inthermocouple measurements by heating the NI 9211 terminals to a different temperature thanthe cold-junction compensation sensor.

8 Thermal gradient across the terminals can cause theterminals of different NI 9211 channels to be at different temperatures, which creates accuracyerrors and affects the relative accuracy between temperature measurement accuracy specifications include errors caused by the thermalgradient across the NI 9211 terminals for configurations with the NI 9211 terminals facingforward or ChannelThe NI 9211 has an internal autozero channel, which can be subtracted from eachthermocouple reading to compensate for offset errors. Use the autozero channel if the ambienttemperature is less than 15 C or more than 35 C.
