5. Use the Input Channel, Coupling, Sensitivity, Input Range, Type, Number
of Positions, and Position 1 Offset fields to set up each balancing plane’s
transducer and weight placement settings for the following balancing
setups.
• One transducer/Two Identical Planes
When two-plane balancing with one transducer (where the balancing
planes are identical), set the Input Channel, Coupling, Sensitivity, and
Input Range on Plane 1. Set the Type, Number of Positions, and
Position 1 Offset fields in the Plane 1 and Plane 2 sections as
appropriate for the one transducer and the identical balancing planes.
• One transducer/Two Differing Planes
When two-plane balancing with one transducer (where balancing plane
weight pattern positions are different for each plane), set up the
transducer (Connector A) and balancing plane one’s weight pattern
settings in the Plane 1 section. Then configure balancing plane two’s
differing weight pattern settings in the Plane 2 section.
• Two transducers
When two-plane balancing with two transducers (regardless of the type
of transducer used for each plane, or whether the two balancing planes
are identical), first set up the first transducer (connector A) and
balancing plane one’s weight pattern settings in the Plane 1 section.
Then set up the second transducer (connector B) and the second
balancing plane’s settings in the Plane 2 section.
Each plane’s weight position radius is specified during the balancing procedure, at
the Add Trial Weight screen.
Complete the following settings in both the Plane 1 and Plane 2 sections.
1. In the Input Channel field, select channel X or channel Y.
For two-plane balancing with one transducer, set the transducer as channel
X in the Plane 1 section. For two-plane balancing with two transducers, set
one plane’s transducer as channel X, the other plane’s transducer as channel
channel Y.
2. Select the type of coupling signal acquired for the transducers.
• AC acquires the input signal from a buffered output (external) device.
• ICP applies DC to the charge amplified transducers signal, and couples
the dynamic signal to the input channel.
