Kistler 5171A 4 Channel Charge amplifier setup

[david.ball]

I am looking for some help to set up the Kistler cRIO charge amplifier. I have followed the instructions to code the FPGA and all I seem to be getting from the amplifier output is a signal that drifts to maximum over a few seconds as soon as I press measure.

Has anyone had any experience of setting these up with a cRIO?

Hi David.Ball,

Are you referring to this module here:

It might be helpful for you to post your FPGA code on this forum so the community can further diagnose your problem. This will allow us to see how exactly an output is being given to the "out" terminal of the module.

Kind regards,
