Shunt Calibration

The PD6100 is equipped with a means of simulating strain in a strain
gauge bridge circuit, via an included shunt resistor in the meter. This
technique is performed by enabling the “shunt resistor” switch (switch
5), which in turn shunts one leg of a connected strain bridge with a
