Piezoresistive Amplifier Type 4665B1, 4665B2
The window is divided up into a total of four areas.
The specifications of your piezoresistive amplifier
can be found in the top area. You can enter the
parameters belonging to sensor [A] and sensor [B]
(channel A and channel B) in the two middle areas.
To edit the respective sensor data, the input field
(sensor settings) must be opened with a double-click
in the "show sensor data" menu field.
You enter the settings, which apply to both sensor
inputs, in the bottom area. The contents of the
grayed out boxes are fixed and cannot be changed.
The grayed out boxes and the user interface change
depending on whether sensors are used with or
without sensor identification.
Basically, the following parameters can be set in the
sensor settings. The respective data is to be
obtained from the calibration sheet. In the case of
PiezoSmart sensors, settings are made automa-
tically, at which time an offset correction can be
implemented.
sensor type
sensor SN (serial number)
range (nominal pressure measuring range of the sensor):
Depending on the pressure unit, the input value is
specified in [bar] or [psi] or [kPa].
reference current:
Nominal sensor supply current that, in accordance
with the specified sensor data, can be set to either 1
mA or 4 mA.
sensitivity (sensor sensitivity):
Sensitivity of the sensor; the input value is in
[mV/(bar*mA)].
ZMO compensation (ZMO = Zero Measurement Output,
Sensor-Offset in the zero point):
This is the sensor bridge voltage at the zero point
(with relative sensors = 0 bar, with absolute sensors
= vacuum ≤1 mbar abs.) and supply with reference
current. The value is entered in [mV], [psi] or [kPa].
This is an offset value specific to the sensor
concerned and which you will find in the calibration
sheet.
non-linearity:
The linearity correction is used to correct systematic
sensor errors. The input value is in [%]. If necessary,
values in the range of ±3 %FS (in 0,1% increments)
