ANALOG INPUT

SECTION 10

Page 10-7 RPC -320

Voltage outputs from pins 6 and 10 are generated by the
RS-232 chip U8. Both of these voltages go through a
100 ohm resistor to H1-10 and H1-6. Pin 10 goes to 0
volts when operating the board in IDLE m odes 1 or 2.
Pin 6 goes to about + 5 volts. These voltages may be
used to supply power to very low pow er amplifier s.

CALIBRATION

The A /D comes fa ctory ca librated for a 0 to 5V inpu t.
This range is chan ged by adjusting R17. You can adjust
the range to 5.12V. This is useful when the input is 0 -
5V and you want to know when the input is over-range.

To calibrate or adjust the voltage reference:

1.

Connect the voltmeter ground to a GN D point
on the Analog IN terminal strip. Make sure
there are no other connections to the analog
ground.

2.

Connect the voltmeter ' + ' lead to U14, pin 6.

3.

Adjust R5 for 5.00 VDC or other voltage as
desired. D o not exceed 5.2 or go below 4. 8
volts.
