  1. Hi again. 

    I tried amplifying the signal in my output software, which unfortunately didn't work. 

    Afterwards I connected you amplifier(LJTick-InAmp), which only enhances the offset as my software already did (+ 0.4mV), but the signal is just as weak and fluctuating as ever. 

    I suspect I need to use the switches (1 -4 as my cable is attached to IN A+), but no matter which switch I turn on I don't see a difference.  

    Do you have an idea what i could be doing wrong ? 

    Picture of the setup is attachedd (switch 5 is turned on though it is difficult to see on the picture).

  2. Hi

    I've encountered a problem that I hope someone can help me out. 

    Im working with hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which is administered by a peristaltic pump, and is set adjust concentrations over a period of 24 hours.  I use a microsensor to measure H2S, which provides me values in mV, which range from 1.5 mV-10. This output signal is obviously quite low, so I use a LabJack U3 LV and adjusted my H2S sensor offset to be at 100 mV.  

    However, when applying my conversion based on y= Mx + b, I get large variations in Value, even -  values. I currently take the average H2S(0) [0,10], but my values still fluctuates, despite my sensor measurements are quite stable. 

    My three point measurements for conversion of values with D-A input, offset at 100 mV gave be the following: 

    µmol/L Volt
    0 0,088
    3,5 0,113
    6,3 0,13

    with the equation for conversion of mV to the units of µmol/L as y = 149,25x - 13,201

    How can I stabilize my input signal, and e.g. ignore negative values so the output my pump is relying on becomes more steady? 

    Thanks in advance.

    Sincerely, 

    Julie
