Control 
Relay control 
The relay of the attenuator is set by selecting the input coupling and the gain as shown in 
the table below. 
RL1, 2 and 5 are driven with +5V/0V, and RL3, 4 is driven with +5V/-5V.

Divide gain 
The gain ratio in each block and input range is a table below. 
At the BNC the dynamic range is 16 mV to 80V FS (full scale) and the output is 500 mV 
differential (HAD631 input).
