AUXn FUNCTION
Menu Items
The
AUX1 FUNCTION
and
AUX2 FUNCTION
menu items determine what happens when the
Auxiliary Function pins (labeled as “AUX1” and “AUX2”) on the channel’s connector
are activated. These pins are “activated” when they are connected to the (-)Signature
(labeled as “-MEM”) pin. The choices are:
•“
DISABLED
” means that activating the pin does nothing.
•“
TRACK HOLD
” means that the tracking, peak and valley values will not be updated.
•“
HIGH/LOW HOLD
” means that the peak and valley values will not be updated.
•“
HIGH/LOW CLEAR
” means that the peak and valley values are reset.
•“
TARE ON
” activates the channel’s Tare function (resets it to zero).
•“
TARE OFF
” deactivates the channel’s Tare function.
As the Auxiliary Function pins are not isolated, it is recommended that a push-button
switch or relay is used to connect these pins to the (-)Signature pin.
