Table 36 - Configurable Parameters for Rod Drop Measurements
Parameters Values Comments
Units Select from presented
displacement units
Rod drop measurements are made using eddy current probes. Configuration of the units, time constant, calibration
offset, and sense control are the same as for Normal Thrust
measurements.
Time Constant 0.1…60.0 seconds
Calibration Units EU (0)
Volts (1)
Calibration Offset -50,000…50,000
Tachometer 0 (Tacho/Speed 0)
1 (Tacho/Speed 1)
Select the source for the tachometer that is used in the rod drop measurement.
Value that is written to the assembly is 1 or 2, 0 = off (to the module).
