8.4 Using Analog and Waveform D/A Output Options (must be factory installed before
132
The instrument can provide analog (p. 135)or waveform output (p. 135) using one of the following D/A
output options (specified before factory shipping).
• 9792 D/A Output Option
• 9793 Motor Testing & D/A Output Option
Both output options provide 16 output channels selectable from the basic measurement items.
Use a mating D-sub connector to connect the D/A outputs to the desired device (oscilloscope, data
logger/recorder).
To be safe, always turn off the instrument and devices before making connections. Turn the instrument
and devices on after confirming the connections.
8.4 Using Analog and Waveform D/A Output
Options (must be factory installed
before shipping)
To avoid electric shock and short circuits, turn the instrument and measurement
line power off before connecting or disconnecting D/A outputs.
• To avoid damage to the instrument, do not short-circuit or apply voltage between outputs.
• The outputs are not isolated from one another.

The impedance of each output is approximately 100 Ω, so the inputs of the recording, DMM or
other device to be connected should be high impedance (at least 1 MΩ).
