Ratiometric Accuracy
1,2,3 
  0 to 40 °C:  ±(0.05% of voltage measurement + offset) 
  –40 to 70 °C:  ±(0.06% of voltage measurement+ offset) 
1
Assumes input reversal for differential measurements. 
2
Does not include bridge resistor errors and sensor measurement noise. 
3
Ratiometric accuracy, rather than absolute accuracy, determines overall measurement 
accuracy of ratiometric resistance measurements. 
7.3  Voltage Excitation – Specifications 
Two terminals configured for voltage excitation using 12-bit D-to-A converter. 
When used for ratiometric-resistance measurement, excitation is active only 
during measurement. 
Terminals:  VX1-VX2 
Range:  150 to 5000 mV 
Resolution:  4.5 mV 
Maximum Source 
or Sink Current:  50 mA total, concurrently or independently 
7.4  Current Measurements – Specifications 
Two independent analog inputs may be configured as independent, non-
isolated 0-20 mA or 4-to-20 mA current-loop inputs. One channel at a time is 
measured in numeric succession. Current is measured using a 24-bit A-to-D 
converter. 
Terminals:  SE terminals 1-2 
Range:  0 to 25 mA 
Accuracy 
  0 to 40 °C:  ±0.14% of reading 
  –40 to 70 °C:  ±0.26% of reading 
7.5  Pulse Measurements – Specifications 
7.5.1  Switch-Closure Input 
Terminals:  P_SW 
    C1-C2
