The standard Model 3010MB Percent Paramagnetic Oxygen Analyzer is equipped with two 0-1 V dc analog output terminals accessible on the interface panel (one concentration and one range ID) and two isolated 4-20 mA dc current outputs (one concentration and one range ID).

See Rear Panel in chapter 3, Installation, for illustration.

The signal output for concentration is linear over the currently selected analysis range. For example, if the analyzer is set on range that was defined as 0–10% O 2, then the output would be:

The analog output signal has a voltage which depends on the oxygen concentration AND the currently activated analysis range. To relate the signal output to the actual concentration, it is necessary to know what range the instrument is currently on, especially when the analyzer is in the autoranging mode.

To provide an indication of the range, a second pair of analog output terminals are used. They generate a steady preset voltage (or current when using the current outputs) to represent a particular range. The following table gives the range ID output for each analysis range:
