The meter output stage can be configured to operate as current output (sinking or sourcing current depending upon
output polarity). It can be used concurrently with the +/-10V output. It does not have an individual Gain and Zero
adjustment, necessitating that a compromise be made during calibration, or a particular output be favored (over one
that can accommodate external scaling and offsetting).

To facilitate individual scaling of the analog meter a panel meter (MO-13655) with scaling board, is available as
an accessory for use with Classic Series tension transducer amplifiers. The scaling board lets the analog meter
have a different scaling factor than that of the main (un-damped) analog output.

Before applying power, check the wiring to the amplifier. Pay particular attention to the following:

• Double check the transducer connections to ensure that the excitation supply is not short-

circuited.

• Use an approved anti-static wrist strap when adjusting any switch settings/potentiometers on the

amplifier.

• Use the appropriate tool when making any adjustments to the potentiometers on the amplifier or

changing switch settings. Damage to the circuitry may occur if excessive force is used or a
conductive tool accidentally contacts internal voltages.


Before applying power, confirm that the zero potentiometers are mid-span and the gain is minimum. Use the
following table to adjust potentiometers:
