The PXIe-4162 Guard pin does not behave correctly when Autorange is enabledWhen Current Limit Range is set to 60 mA / 100 mA and the Autorange property is set to 1 (Enabled), the Guard pin will output a much smaller voltage than expected, even when the hardware selects a current range where guarding is available.
Workaround: Turn off Autorange property when using 60 mA/100 mA current limit range alongside Guard pin functionality on PXIe-4162.
