NI9205 with load cell, labview voltage measurement

I am trying to use NI9205 with a s-step 10kg load cell. The red and black wires of the load cell are powered by a 5V DC supply. The green wire of the load cell is in the AI4 channel in NI-9205, and the white wire is in the AI12 channel. I am using DAQ Assist and have chosen the voltage configuration for channel AI4. Continuous samples are taken, and a differential terminal configuration is used. A waveform graph is plotted.

The issues-

1) The voltage reading should be 0 and constant when no load is applied. But it is oscillating around 0. 

2) When I add 200 g, the voltage reading should increase. But there is no change. 

The load cell does not have a problem since I have tested it with Arduino and HX711. 

PFA the relevant images and details of the load cell. Waiting for the reply. Thanks in advance.

It seems like your load cell outputs a floating signal, use Reference Single Ended mode instead.

Thank you for the response.

I made it RSE and accordingly connected the wirings to AI4 and AI17. Still the voltage readings before and after adding weights is the same.

PFA the changes made.
