Note: When network commands are enabled the address must be sent before the respective
datalogger will respond. See Sections 3.21, 3.23, and 3.24 for additional information.
3.9 “Gnn/c/tt/szzzzzz/sffffff/soooooo” or “Gnn/c/tt/saaaaaa/sbbbbbb/scccccc” –
Gage Settings
The G command is used to set up each of the four datalogger channels. All of the transducer
parameters, including the type of conversion (linear or polynomial) and whether a channel is
enabled or disabled are set with this command.
Refer to Table 2 and Table 3 for a description of each gage type.
The syntax for this command is:
Linear Conversion:
G
nn/c/t/szzzzzz/sffffff/soooooo
Where:
nn = Channel # (Valid entries are 1, 2, 3, and 4 for the LC-2x4)
c = Conversion Type(L/P) where L=Linear and P=Polynomial
t = Gage Type:
0: Channel Disabled (will display “---“)
1: VW Gage Type 1
2: VW Gage Type 2
3: VW Gage Type 3
4: VW Gage Type 4
5: VW Gage Type 5
6: VW Gage Type 6
szzzzzz = zero reading with sign
sffffff = gage factor with sign
soooooo = offset with sign
Example:
To setup Channel 1 as a model 4000 VW Strain Gage with a Zero Reading of 490
digits, a Gage Factor of –0.0015 and a Gage Offset of zero, enter:
G1/L/3/490/-0.0015/0 <ENTER>
The LC-2x4 will return:
CH 1: ENABLED
GT: 3 ZR: 490.0000 GF: -0.00150 GO: 0.00000
*Note
: If selecting Gage Type 0 to disable the channel, the LC-2x4 will only return “*”. Use the
MXS
command (Section 3.18) to view the disabled channels.
When using linear conversion (L) of the instrument reading, the G command is used to select the
gage type and enter the gage zero reading, gage factor, and gage offset.
Linear Conversion is described further as follows:
