6.9.4.4. Analog Output Offset Adjustment

Some analog signal recorders require that the zero signal is significantly different from the baseline
of the recorder in order to record slightly negative readings from noise around the zero point. This

can be achieved in the M6200E by defining a zero offset, a small voltage (e.g., 10% of span),
which can be added to the signal of individual output channels by activating the ANALOG I/O

6.9.4.5. Current Loop Output Adjustment

A current loop option is available and can be installed as a retrofit for each of the analog outputs of

the analyzer (Section 5-2). This option converts the DC voltage analog output to a current signal
with 0-20 mA output current. The outputs can be scaled to any set of limits within that 0-20 mA

range. However, most current loop applications call for either 2-20 mA or 4-20 mA range. All
current loop outputs have a +5% over-range. Ranges with the lower limit set to more than 1 mA

(e.g., 2-20 or 4-20 mA) also have a -5% under-range.

To switch an analog output from voltage to current loop after installing the current output printed
circuit assembly, follow the instructions in Section 6.9.4.1 and select CURR from the list of options

on the “Output Range” menu.

Adjusting the signal zero and span values of the current loop output is done by raising or lowering

the voltage of the respective analog output. This proportionally raises or lowers the current
produced by the current loop option.

Similar to the voltage calibration, the software allows this current adjustment to be made in 100,
10 or 1 count increments. Since the exact current increment per voltage count varies from output
