Ditel Digital Stars 8000TP Technical Manual

  • Hello! I've reviewed the technical manual for the DITEL Digital Stars Series 8000TP strain meter. This document outlines the procedures for configuring the device's input sensitivity, display settings, and adjustments for accurate readings. I can help you understand how to calculate resistor values, adjust the common mode rejection ratio, and set up the display range. Feel free to ask any questions you have about the 8000TP.
  • What is the default input sensitivity of the strain meter?
    How to modify the input sensitivity?
    How is the display reading adjusted?

INPUT SENSIVITY
Strain meters for brid
g
e type transducers are confi
g
ured for an input sensivity
(transducer output in mV) of 100mV at full-scale.
To modifie this value, replace the resistor R6 for one whose value is given by
the following formulas:
where: mV = cell sensivity (in mV) for the constant current that supplies the
meter (1.5mA).
If the transducer's specifications are given for an excitation current different
from 1.5mA, apply the proportional factor to obtain the mV output at a
current of 1.5mA.
DISPLAY READING
After configuring the input sensivity, apply the following formula to determine
the value of R18 in order to get the desired display readout (VD).
R18)ohm) = ((553*(2500 - VD)) / VD) - 100
With the resistance value obtained from the formula, the span adjustment
margin is set to 20% of the display readout VD.
COMMON MODE REJECTION RATIO
Tie terminals B and C togheter at the input connector and connect two
resistors of 1Mohm from this point to pin A and pin D as it is indicated in the
figure at right.
Adjust the ZERO potentiometer until 0V are obtained between its middle point
(slider) and the meter ground (taken at the point -M- of the capacitor).
Adjust finally the RP3 potentiometer until the display registers 0V.
DISPLAY RANGE ADJUSTMENT
Connect two resistors of 1kohm between the input C and pins A and D in
order to reference this input to the tranducer's excitation.
N = 2750 / mV R6(ohm) = 12000 / N - 3

Connect between pins B and C an accurate reference millivoltmeter replacing
the full-scale transducer's signal and adjust the SPAN potentiometer until the
display reads the desired value.
Shortcircuit pins B and C and readjust 0V with the ZERO potentiometer.
