CALIBRATIONS OF INPUT SIGNAL OTHER THAN PRESETS SHOWN ON TABLE

1.) If you have an input range other than any presets shown above, set the input DIP switches to one of the 
three Adj. settings.  See inputs above in bold type.
2.) Apply the maximum of the input signal to terminals IN and COM.  With a volt meter measure the voltage 
from TP1 to the AIM2’s input side common (COM).  Turn the input Max. pot until the meter reads 5.00 ± 0.00 
V.  The maximum of the input signal is now calibrated.
3.) If the minimum of the input signal is zero, set input DIP switches 7 and 8 OFF and 6 ON.
4.) If the minimum of the input signal is other than zero, set maximum as in step 2, and use the following 
steps to set the minimum:

A.) Set switch 8 ON and 6 and 7 OFF.
B.) Produce the minimum signal value at the input terminal (IN).
C.) Measure the voltage between the TP1 test point and COM.  Record or remember.
D.) Now measure voltage between the TP3 test point and COM.  Adjust the input MIN pot until the 
voltage at TP3 is equal to the voltage recorded at TP1.  The minimum and maximum input signals are 
now calibrated.

SETTING AIM2 OUTPUT

FOR PRESET VOLTAGE OUTPUT RANGES:

  Make the following switch settings on output DIP switches.  

Set jumper J4 for E/Isnk (voltage/current sink), and J5 for SRC (source) output signal. See 

Table 3

.

FOR PRESET CURRENT OUTPUT RANGES:

  Make the following switch settings on output DIP switch.  If 

Source, set Jumper J4 to I and J5 to SRC.  If Sink, set J4 to E/Isnk, and J5 to SNK. See 

Table 4

.

FOR CALIBRATION OF AN ODD OUTPUT SIGNAL

Before proceeding, you must have already set up the 
input signal.  If not, return to page 3 and “SETTING 
AIM2 INPUT”.

Output ranges are selectable on the output DIP 
switch by setting offset (minimum signal) and spans 
available (maximum minus offset) are shown below.  
Find out if you can use a preset range by subtracting 
the minimum output signal (or offset) from the 
maximum.  For example, a 3.4 to 9.4 V signal output 
equals a 6 volt range, which is available as a preset, 
and the 3.4 volt offset can be adjusted.  Any span not 
listed below will have to be set from one of the 
adjustable range switch settings.

TO SET PRESET OUTPUT SPANS (Reference only 
switches 1 through 4, others are for OFFSET - See 

Table 5

).
