7. Enter the Range Definition parameters.

Available range definition parameters vary based on the conditioner type and calibration type that you
select:

Full-range conditioners (such as a Model 493.25 conditioner or Series 494 conditioners) only allow a single
range with these calibration-type options:

Gain/Linearization (full-range conditioner only) - select this cal type for linear transducers. The conditioner
uses the values entered in the Linearization Table to compensate for slight anomalies in the transducer
characteristics.

Gain/Advaned Linearization (full-range conditioner only) - select this cal type for non-linear transducers
. The conditioner uses the values entered in the Linearization Table to compensate for slight anomalies
in the transducer characteristics.

Gain/Delta-K

mV/V Pos Tension

mV/V Pos Comp

Multi-range conditioners allow multiple ranges (up to 10 ranges) with these calibration-type options:

Gain/Delta-K

mV/V Pos Tension

mV/V Pos Comp
