116 Device description
5.8.2.5 Balancing and shunt calibration
The amplifier offers a variety of possibilities to trigger bridge balancing:
· Balancing / shunt calibration via graphical user interface of device software (channel balance
respectively amplifier balance)
· Balancing / shunt calibration via display (see software manual)
· In shunt calibration, the bridge is unbalanced by means of a 59.8 kΩ or 174.7 kΩ shunt (between
+VB and +IN).
The results are:
Bridge resistance
120 Ω
350 Ω
59.8 kΩ
174.7 kΩ
0.5008 mV/V
0.171 mV/V
1.458 mV/V
0.5005 mV/V
The procedures for balancing bridge channels also apply analogously to the voltage measurement mode
with zero-balancing.
Note
· We recommend setting channels which are not connected for voltage measurement at the highest
input range. Otherwise, if unconnected channels are in quarter- or half-bridge mode, interference
may occur in a shunt calibration!
