To verify the operation of this circuit, connect a variable resistor across
terminals A3 and A4.
The resistor range should cover the full range of resistance produced by
the tap changer mechanism. The tap position is displayed in A2

Adjust the resistance to simulate the minimum tap position and verify
that a “1” is displayed.
Gradually increase the resistance up to the value which represents the
maximum tap value, verifying that the tap position indicator tracks the
resistance.
