Manual Out - 50%
The desired fixed output you want as a percent of full scale is entered using the numeric keypad,
which includes the numbers 0
–
9, +/–, and decimal point. For this example, we will enter –50%. Press
the
Enter
key. The instrument will return to the normal display. The analog output will begin to output
a constant voltage that is –50% × 10 volts = –5 volts.
In a second example, if you repeat the same procedure using all the same settings, but enter +75%,
then the output would be +75% × 10 volts = +7.5 volts.
In a third example, if you repeat the same procedure, but choose Bipolar Off, enter +25%, then the
output would be +25% × 10 volts = +2.5 volts. The difference being that any negative sign will be
ignored with Bipolar Mode Off and the output will always be a positive voltage.
