3. Position the jumper for each channel as shown in Fig. 5 to interconnect the pair of
pins corresponding to the desired “open TC” polarity for that channel. You will
need to use a small pair of needle-nosed pliers to move the jumper.
4. Reinsert the AA14-4F010 card in its mainframe slot.
3.b SELECTION OF ANALOG OUTPUT MODES
As mentioned in Section 1, each AA14-4F010 channel's ±5-V ANALOG OUTPUT can
be set to represent either the
filtered or prefiltered reading of that channel. To set the
output mode for each of your AA14-4F010's active input channels,* you should
1. Remove the AA14-4F010 card from its slot (see Section 3.a, Step 1, above).
2. Refer to Fig. 5 and locate the OUTPUT MODE PROGRAMMING JUMPER PINS
beneath the AA14-4F010's Filter Tile(s). One “minijumper” is provided for each
channel's set of three jumper pins.
3. Position the jumper for each channel as shown in Fig. 5 to interconnect the pair of
pins that corresponds to the desired output mode for that channel. You will need
to use a small pair of needle-nosed pliers to move the jumper.
4. Reinsert the AA14-4F010 card in its mainframe slot.
3.c CONFIGURATION AND CALIBRATION
For initial configuration of ANALOG INPUT CHANNELS dedicated to a specific Model
AA14-4F010 card, see the general remarks on System 10 “real-channel” configura-
tion in Manual Section 1.G.1 and elsewhere in the
System 10 Guidebook. For AA14-
4F010
channel “type” codes, see Table 3, below.
In System 10, the initial configuration and ABSOLUTE CALIBRATION of an
AA14-4F010 channel (No. “x”) involve direct entry of the channel’s TYPE CODE,
SCALING FACTOR (“m” coefficient), and ZERO OFFSET (“b” term) via the corre-
sponding mnemonic commands. The values of these parameters that are
entered will depend on the TC type and the desired engineering units (°C or °F),
as given in Table 3, below. You may also perform a subsequent
TWO-POINT
(DEADWEIGHT)
calibration of an AA14-4F010 channel in System 10, as
explained below.
ABSOLUTE CALIBRATION
In the following procedure, Channel No. “x” is a System 10 “REAL CHANNEL”
sourced by an AA14-4F010 card. Note that, with the exception of the
LOCATE
(LCT)
command (Step 2), each of the commands can be applied to a continuous
range of channels by entering the command in “range” form, where the single
channel-number argument “x” is replaced by “x TO y” (indicating all channels
from Channel No. x to and including Channel No. y).
1. Turn ON the system EEPROM SWITCH.
2. Make sure that Channel No. x has been assigned the proper A-SLOT / SUB-
CHANNEL “location.” See Manual Section 1.G.1 for details on the
LOCATE
(LCT)
command.
AA14-4F010.6 SETUP AND/OR OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS
* The output mode setting for an UNUSED channel is immaterial, and will not affect operation of
the AA14-4F010.
