The meter output stage can be configured to operate as current output (sinking or sourcing current depending upon
output polarity). It can be used concurrently with the other outputs. It does not have an individual Gain and Zero
adjustment, necessitating that a compromise be made during calibration, or a particular output be favored (over one
that can accommodate external scaling and offsetting).

To facilitate individual scaling of the analog meter a panel meter (MO-13655) with scaling board, is available as
an accessory for use with Classic Series tension transducer amplifiers. The scaling board lets the analog meter
have a different scaling factor than that of the main (un-damped) analog output.

Before applying power, check the wiring to the amplifier. Pay particular attention to the following:

• Double check the transducer connections to ensure that the excitation supply is not

short-circuited.

• Use an approved anti-static wrist strap when adjusting any switch

settings/potentiometers on the amplifier.

• Use the appropriate tool when making any adjustments to the potentiometers on the

amplifier or changing switch settings. Damage to the circuitry may occur if excessive
force is used or a conductive tool accidentally contacts internal voltages.

Before applying power, confirm that the zero potentiometers are mid-span and the gain is minimum. Use the
following table to adjust potentiometers:

Zero – P1

Mid-way (9 turns from full counter-clockwise)
