A.1 Analog Output Calibration
The analogue output is that of a current source. In order to calibrate the output it is necessary to monitor the output signal. This can be
performed in one of two ways:
Current measurement:
Connect an ammeter (or multimeter set to measure current in the mA range) in series with the analogue output.
Advantage: Direct measurement of output.
Disadvantage: The analogue output has to be disconnected to allow the connection of the meter.
Voltage measurement:
Permanently connect a 10R resistor in series with the analogue output. When calibration is required, connect a voltmeter (or multimeter
set to measure voltage in the mV range) across the 10R resistor.
Advantage: No need to disturb wiring between EX-6100 and control unit.
Disadvantage: Measurement accuracy dependent upon resistor tolerance.
A.1.1 Analogue Output Zero
• Monitor the current sourced from the analogue output of the EX-6100 using a suitable method.
• From the menu system select menu option: E: 4 and press ENTER.
•
Using the INCREASE and DECREASE buttons; adjust the output to the required level (4mA or 40mV).
•
Press ENTER.
N
OTE : Pressing the MENU button rather than the ENTER button exits the zero feature without performing the calibration.
• Press the MENU button to close the menu system.
N
OTE : The ZERO factor will be displayed momentarily on exit.
A.1.2 Analogue Output Span
Always zero the analogue output prior to performing a span operation.
• From the menu system select menu option: E: 5 and press ENTER.
• Using the INCREASE and DECREASE buttons; adjust the output to the required level.
• Press ENTER button.
N
OTE : Pressing the MENU button rather than the ENTER button exits the span feature without performing the calibration.
• Press the MENU button to close the menu system.
N
OTE : The ANALOGUE OUTPUT SPAN factor will be displayed momentarily on exit.
