4.5 Analog Output Setup Menu
[This section is relevant to instruments ordered with this option]
This menu allows you to set up an output value and its zero and full scales for
either of the two internal analog output channels. Table 4-3 explains the analog
output setup options, and Table 4-4 lists all measurement parameters that can be
directed to analog output.
Output parameter
Zero-scale output Full-scale output
To select an analog channel:
Use the up/down arrow keys to select the desired analog output channel.
To view the setup options for the selected channel:
Press to activate the middle window.
Use the up/down arrow keys to scroll to the desired option. The value associated with this
option is displayed in the lower window.
To change the setup options for the selected channel:
Press to activate the lower window.
Use the up/down arrow keys to scroll to the desired value.
Press to store the selected value, or press to leave the value
unchanged.
Press again to store the setup for the channel.
To quit the setup without changes:
From the middle or lower window, press .
To quit the menu:
From the upper window, press or .
NOTES
1. Except for the signed power factor, the output scale is linear within the value range.
The scale range will be inverted if the full scale specified is less than the zero scale.
2. The output scale for the signed power factor is symmetrical with regard to ±1.000 and
is linear from -0 to -1.000, and from 1.000 to +0 (note that -1.000 ≡ +1.000). Negative
power factor is output as [-1.000 minus measured value], and non-negative power
factor is output as [+1.000 minus measured value]. To define the entire range for
power factor from -0 to +0, the scales would be specified as -0.000/0.000.
3. For bi-directional analog output ( ±1 mA), the zero scale corresponds to the center of
the scale range (0 mA) and the direction of current matches the sign of the output
