Channel actions

This is a list of channel actions you can use to perform actions on all channels to which they are applicable.

NOTE: Only the actions applicable to the channels in your current setup will be shown.

  • Used all - Sets all channels to Used.
  • Unused all - Sets all channels to Unused.
  • Set highest range - Sets ranges of all amplifiers to the highest possible input range.
  • Set best range - will measure the real-time data and set the range of all amplifiers to the best possible fit.
  • Set highest filter - will set the analog input filters of all amplifiers to the highest possible values or switch it to off\, if possible.
  • Set filter to 40% of rate - will set the analog input filter of all amplifiers to the nearest value of the Nyquist frequency (40% of sample rate) to prevent aliasing.
  • Balance sensors - Balances all bridge sensors.
  • Reset sensors balance - Resets the sensor balance of all bridge sensors.
  • Balance amplifiers - Balances all amplifiers\, zeroing their offset.
  • Short on / Short off - Shorts pins 2 and 7 of the amplifiers\, showing their offset.
  • Shunt on / Shunt off - Shunts a known resistor to one of the resistors of the bridge amplifiers. This creates an unbalance needed for the Shunt cal check.
  • Shunt cal check - Calculates the error of the shunt calibration using the Shunt calibration target for all bridge amplifiers.
  • Sensor check - Same as Shunt cal check.
  • Adjust by shunt - Used for manual calibration.
  • Leadwire compensation - Cancels out the wire resistance for sensors in “quarter bridge 3 wire mode”.
  • Self-test - Performs a self-test for bridge amplifiers.
  • Charge reset - Resets the charge modules.
  • Charge injection on / Charge injection off - Outputs a sine 1V 20Hz signal to measure capacitance.
  • Set power on default / Reset power on default - Sets or resets current channel settings as default on device start-up.
  • Zero all / Reset zero all - Zeroes all channels.
  • First point cal. / Second point cal. - Sets the first or second calibration point based on the current short average measurement of signals for all sensors.
  • Enable AO / Disable AO - Enables or disables signal conditioning.
  • Rescan DSI/TEDS - Rescans the TEDS chip of the sensors.
  • Pause TEDS scan / Resume TEDS scan - Pauses or resumes the TEDS scan.
  • Zero sensor calibrate - Sets the sensor calibration date of all sensors to the current date.
  • Alignment - Used to align MEMS sensor axes in case the sensors are not mounted perfectly horizontally.
