Functions |
■ Bridge Check function |
The "Bridge Check" function automatically detects disconnections, shorts, and cable breaks at each circuit of the bridge. The easy detection of disconnected or short-circuited wires reduces measurement preparation time and helps prevent problems with the input section.
|
|
■ Cable Length Correction function |
If the distance between the bridge circuit and the amplifier is long, the bridge voltage will drop due to the conductor resistance of the cable. In the past, remote sensing with a 6-core cable and compensation by numerical setting (cable length, wire diameter, etc.) were used. (Remote sensing was not possible with the AC strain amp using 6-core cable.) This series of products employs a unique automatic compensation circuit to compensate for bridge voltage drops even with 4-core cables, enabling highly accurate strain measurement.
