Analog Output

An analog output signal is available at the ANALOG OUTPUT connector (BNC) on the front panel. This signal is a voltage between 0 - 5.0 volts which is proportional to the measurement signal. For example, an analog output signal of 2.5 volts (+0.5 volts) would represent a measurement of 50% of full scale.

SENSOR SELECT Switch

The SENSOR SELECT switch is used to select sensor type and, in the case of thermistor sensor, the source current level. Table 2.4 shows the SENSOR SELECT positions and corresponding position code. When the sensor switch is changed during TEC mode operation, the new sensor position code will be indicated on the TEC display for three seconds.
