SCXI-1121 Shunt Calibration
Shunt calibration circuits are independent from each other but are
controlled together. In other words, when SCAL is set to 1 on the
SCXI-1121, all the shunt switches close when SCAL is cleared to 0, all the
switches open. At startup or reset, all switches are open. This shunt
calibration circuitry configuration places a shunting resistor in parallel with
the strain gauge as shown in Figure 2-10.
