4.2.2 Manual DAC
ScCMP provides an interface for manually controlling the available DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) outputs.
This is a useful tool when installing or interfacing the DAC outputs to other equipment without having to apply real
load to the lift equipment.
Note DAC outputs may not be available in all products.
The ScCMP manual DAC control interface is divided into two sections.
• The left provides the DAC Status interface. This shows the currently selected DAC output.
- Current calibration values – Offset, Gain, Minimum and Maximum Span.
- DAC status – Calibrated, Enabled, In Cal, and Manual Mode.
- DAC configuration relative to input sensor – Sensor ID, Units, Value Type, Minimum and Maximum
Value.
• The right pane provides the calibration controls interface.
- At the top of this will be some brief instructions for what each calibration step requires.
Note Please reference your specific hardware user guide for details on connecting to and measuring the DAC output.
To enable the manual DAC output:
1. Select the desired DAC output from the left status panel.
2. Press the Enable toggle button (observe the Manual Mode indicator on the left status panel indicate true).
3. The slider control allows adjusting the DAC value over the full range (0-4095). Adjust the slider bar to the
desired value.
4. Press the Update button to apply the value to the DAC output.
5. When finished, press the Enable toggle button to go back to normal DAC mode (observe the Manual Mode
indicator on the left status panel indicate false).
