the SCC-CO20 cannot source current, it is impossible to know when you have adjusted

Using the SCC-CO20
The SCC-CO20 is a 0 to 20 mA programmable current sink. The current
output is controlled by AO (X), a 0 to 10 V unipolar DAC output channel
of an E/M Series DAQ device. The relationship between the AO (X)
voltage level and the current output of the SCC-CO20 is linear and is
described by the following equation:

Note
The current sink does not source current. If the input voltage is 0 V or less,
the module sinks 0 mA.
Isolated Ground Reference
Each SCC-CO20 module is referenced to its own isolated ground. Each
isolated ground can have up to 60 VDC of common-mode voltage between
itself and any other channel ground or chassis ground. Refer to the
