Abstract:
This experiment provides an overview of the instrumentation lab
equipment and its components, including the NI-ElVIS II tool, which is
short for the NI Engineering Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite
series 2. The NI-ElVIS II tool facilitates project-based learning with live
measurements and practical design, featuring functions such as a digital
multimeter, variable power supply, and oscilloscope. The experiment
comprises three parts: measuring component values, constructing a
voltage divider circuit, and using the digital multimeter to measure the
circuit's current. A voltage divider circuit is a passive linear circuit that
generates an output voltage that is a fraction of its input voltage. Both
experimental and theoretical data were calculated to obtain the
experiment's results.

Objective:
The NI-ElVIS II is used in the instrumentation lab with the
following objectives:

1.Project-based learning: The NI-ElVIS II facilitates project-based


learning by enabling students to work with live measurements and
practical design. This approach helps students gain a better
understanding of the concepts covered in the lab.

2.Familiarization with lab instruments: The NI-ElVIS II provides


several functions, such as a digital multimeter, variable power
supply, and oscilloscope, which are commonly used in lab
experiments. By using the NI-ElVIS II, students can become
familiar with these instruments and learn how to operate them.
3.Enhancing learning experience: The use of the NI-ElVIS II
enhances the students' learning experience by providing a
platform for hands-on experimentation and exploration. This
approach can help students better retain and apply the concepts
they learn in the lab.

4.Developing skills for future lab work: By using the NI-ElVIS II,
students can develop the necessary skills for future laboratory
work, such as measurement techniques, circuit design, and
instrument operation. These skills can be valuable for students
pursuing careers in fields such as engineering and science.

Theory:
A. Definition of Output Voltage:
The voltage divider circuit is designed to generate an output
voltage that is either equal to or lower than the input voltage by
manipulating the input voltage through the circuit's components.
In this experiment, a voltage divider circuit is constructed using
two resistors connected in series and an input voltage from the
ELVIS tool. Both theoretical and experimental calculations are
used to determine the output voltage. The theoretical calculation
involves the use of the following equation:
V(OUT)=V(1)*R(2)/(R(1)*R(2))

DATA and graph:


In the lab we have taken with my group a data and information to help
us to identify and calculate the resistance and voltage and get the ratio
of error.
We use NI-ELVIS II can be used to measure the voltage between two
points in a circuit that includes a resistor in the following way:

Set up the NI-ELVIS II for voltage measurement: Connect the leads or


cables of the NI-ELVIS II to the two points in the circuit between which
the voltage is to be measured. Then, select the voltage measurement
function on the NI-ELVIS II.

Apply power to the circuit: Apply power to the circuit using an


appropriate power source.

Measure the voltage: The NI-ELVIS II measures the voltage between the
two points in the circuit.

Calculate the voltage drop across the resistor: If a resistor is included in


the circuit between the two points being measured, the voltage drop
across the resistor can be calculated using Ohm's law, which states that
voltage (V) is equal to the current (I) multiplied by the resistance (R).
Therefore, V = I x R.

By following these steps, the NI-ELVIS II can be used to measure the


voltage between two points in a circuit that includes a resistor, and to
calculate the voltage drop across the resistor if present.se NI ELVIS II to
calculate the voltage :

Discussion :
It has been demonstrated through the use of the ELVIS tool and
the standard resistor color code table that there is no precise
resistance for a resistor, only approximate values. This is
evidenced by the results shown in Table 1. Errors in reading the
color bands can lead to inaccuracies in the results, highlighting
the potential for human error.

Table 2 reveals that the NI-ELVIS II instrument is highly reliable,


as evidenced by the low percentage error in the R2 results
(0.72%). While this error can be further reduced by repeating the
experiment several times and taking the average voltage, this
already represents a strong level of precision and accuracy.

Unfortunately, the final part of the experiment produced results


that were not meaningful due to an instrument error. Such errors
can occur for a variety of reasons, including human error or
issues with the equipment itself. Researchers should be mindful
of the need for regular inspection and calibration of all testing
machines, as machines that are not inspected or calibrated on a
regular basis can lead to instrument errors. However, selecting
the appropriate tools and repeating tests to obtain an average
result can help to reduce errors.
