Introduction
This section contains detailed information on front panel and remote interface operation of the
2000-SCAN.
Before using the 2000-SCAN, you should be thoroughly familiar with the operation of the
DMM6500 multimeter. See the DMM6500 User's and Reference Manuals for the necessary
information.
Signal limitation
To prevent damage to the 2000-SCAN, do not exceed the maximum level specifications of the
scanner card.
Relay input signal limitations
Channels 1 to 10 are all relay inputs. To prevent overheating or damaging the relays, never exceed
the following maximum signal levels for these channels:
•
DC signals: 110 VDC, 1 A switched, 30 VA (resistive load)
•
AC signals: 125 V
RMS
or 175 VAC
PEAK
, 1 A switched, 62.5 VA (resistive load)
