Signal Output

Signal attenuation

Note that if RANGE 2!( ) or ATTN 2!( )

is pressed without first pressing

SIG 1 or

SIG 2

, SIGNAL 1 channel is assumed (and displayed). If

desired,

SIG 2

can then be pressed to display the same function for the

SIGNAL 2 channel.

Entering RANGE 2!( )

/ ATTN 2!( )

setpoints

 

 

A new setpoint value is entered for either RANGE 2!( ) or ATTN 2!( )

using

the key sequence:

 

 

 

 

SIG 1 (or SIG 2

) RANGE 2!( )

(or ATTN 2!( )

) Numeric Value

ENTER

Once channel and function are displayed, appropriate keys for the new value are pressed, followed by ENTER to terminate the entry.

Switching off the +1 mV output

The +1 mV signal output can be switched off, providing no signal to the data•receivingdevice. This is often useful in setting the zero position at a connected strip chart recorder.

This is done through the following key sequence:

SIG 1 (or SIG 2 ) ATTN 2!( )

OFF

The third example display in Figure 5•4is typical after pressing OFF.

After setting the pen to the desired zero position at the connected chart recorder, the current attenuation value is restored by pressing ON .

Entering a new ATTN 2!( ) value overrides OFF.
