Problem with U3 and LJTick-InAmp
I connected the LJTick - InAmp card to the FIO6-FIO7 input.
I connected the Red and Black wires of the Strain Gage (Figure attached) to GND and VRef of the LJTick-InAmp
I connected the White and Green wires of the Strain Gage to IN -B and IN + B of the LJTick-InAmp
The LJTick-InAmp switches are all OFF
On FIO7 I don't see voltage variations.
What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

Hello,

Please see this page for a basic operation test and some troubleshooting tips:

Also note that you will want some of the switches on, at least to get the gain setting you will need. See this page for some considerations when using a LJTick-InAmp with bridge circuits:

The allowable input range mentioned in the page above is referencing the table here:
