6.3.3 Four Wire Half Bridge (Measured Excitation Current)

Sensor to Multiplexer Wiring — One sensor per input SET. The panel switch
is set to “4x16” mode.

Multiplexer to Datalogger Wiring — One COM line is tied to a datalogger
excitation channel, and two COM lines to a differential analog input. The
remaining COM line is connected to the H side of a datalogger differential
channel along with a fixed resistor. The other side of the resistor connects to
the L side of the differential channel and to ground (FIGURE 6-5). Up to 16
four wire half-bridges may be measured by two differential datalogger
channels in this manner.
