3. When the desired voltage range appears, press ENTER to return to the
"RANGE" display. Then press SETUP to return to the "Setup" display, and pro-
ceed to Section 3.a.6.
3.a.5.e SETTING THE MODEL 3570’S DC STRAIN GAGE
INPUT RANGE AND EXCITATION
The Model 3570 DC Strain Gage Conditioner must be set to match the full-
scale range of the strain gage transducer.
1. If, after pressing the RANGE button, you want to display the current input-
range setting, press ENTER. Otherwise, press RANGE again and proceed to
Step 5. If you press ENTER, the unit will display a number representing the
current input-range setting (in mV/V): ".75," "1.5," or "3.0."
2. To change the input range, you can cycle forwards or backwards through the
allowed numbers by pressing the top or bottom segment, respectively, of any
digit display (even if it is blank).
4. When the desired mV/V range appears, press ENTER. The unit will display
"ECITE" (for "EXCITATION"):
5. If you want to display the current excitation setting, press ENTER. Otherwise,
press RANGE again and proceed to Step 7. If, for example, the conditioner is
set for an excitation of 5 V-DC, when you press ENTER it will display "5."
6. To change the excitation level, you can cycle forwards or backwards through
the allowed settings (2, 5, and 10 V) by pressing the top or bottom segment,
respectively, of any digit display (even if it is blank).
7. When the desired excitation appears, press ENTER to return to the "RANGE"
display. Then press SETUP to return to the "Setup" display, and proceed to
Section 3.a.6.
3.a.5.f SETTING THE MODEL 3578’S AC STRAIN GAGE INPUT RANGE
The Model 3578 AC Strain Gage Conditioner must be set to match the full-
scale range of the strain gage transducer.
1. After pressing the RANGE button, press ENTER. The current range setting
will now appear. If, for example, the conditioner is set for a full-scale input of
1.5 mV/V, the display will show the number "1.5."
2. To change the input range, you can cycle forwards or backwards through the
allowed settings (.75, 1.5, and 3.0 mV/V) by pressing the top or bottom seg-
ment, respectively, of any digit display (even if it is blank).
3. When the desired mV/V range appears, press ENTER to return to the
"RANGE" display. Then press SETUP to return to the "Setup" display.
