Chapter 3: Option Selection
Voltage output ranges are determined by switch settings as described in the following
paragraphs. The method to update D/A outputs is software programmable as described
in Chapter 5, Programming.
Output Ranges
There is a four-position slide switch (OFF = DOWN position / ON = UP position) with
each individual position slide notated with 1, 2, 3 or 4. Each four-position slide switch is
associated with each DAC channel to make voltage range selection: switches S1
(Channel 0) through S6 (Channel 5) as depicted in the following table.
