14.5 Theory 1: Operation of Angle Sensor
14.5.1 Measuring current:
The ammeter
is used to measure current at the angle input signal. Remove the wire from
X1:29 terminal in the central unit and measure the current with the ammeter in series. The
measurement should be between 4..20mA.
14.5.2 Measuring voltage:
The voltmeter
is used to measure voltage between pins X1:29 (angle signal) and X1:28 (GND)
on the main board 024-352-300-001. The resistors are there to show that at 4mA the voltage is 1.1V
because current multiplied with resistance equals voltage; therefore, 4mA x 275 ohms (total
resistance) = 1.1V.
