Transducer Identification Modules
Transducer ID modules (located at the end of the sensor cable) are optional
components that can store sensor calibration information just like a sensor
calibration file. Since the calibration information stays with the sensors,
transducer ID modules make it easier to change sensors.
Calibration information can be stored in the transducer ID EEPROM or in a
sensor calibration file. When you load a station that does not have a sensor file
assigned to one or more of its signals, by default, the system software looks for
calibration information in the transducer ID.
The molded ID module has a removable cover and includes provisions for:
• A shunt calibration resistor
• Up to three bridge completion resistors
• A transducer ID circuit card
The circuit card has the bridge completion and shunt calibration resistors on one
side, and the transducer ID circuit on the other.
• R6, R7, and R8 are the bridge completion resistors.
• R9 is the shunt calibration resistor.
