Analog output channels (EHLS and EBRG)

The analog outputs for the EBRG and EHLS run continuously using dedicated hardware (i.e., in brief, a D/A converter that “follows” the A/D converter). There are no configuration parameters. The scaling parameters required to convert the analog output signal voltages to the channel specific physical units data are provided in the AOX File that can only be downloaded when an SIE test run is in progress.

Configure analog outputs on the Output channels page.

ClosedGeneric parameters

  • Connection: A unique hardware identifier created by the system.
  • Reading: Current value of the channel. Show the readings by selecting the desired channels and clicking Live update. Not in edit dialog.
  • Units: For most channel types, the user can enter the physical units as desired; however, for some channel types (i.e., most temperature channels, and any bridge channel that uses the Strain gage scaling mode), the user can only select an option provided in the drop down list box presented.
  • Name: The channel name must be unique and contain valid characters (invalid characters are single and double quotes, '\', '@', '#', '&', '<' and '>'). Invalid channel names are 'true' and 'false' (case sensitive).
  • Description: Enter an optional detailed description of the channel.
