Terminal Module
Description
The terminal module contains the set of bridge resistors used in strain gage
measurements. The two 1k
Ω
bridge resistors contained in the resistor pack
(RP1) make up one half of the bridge arrangement. The other half of the
bridge arrangement for channel 0 consists of a user-supplied 120
Ω
strain
gage and the 120
Ω
resistor R0.
The junction (Vg) between the resistors R21 and R20 is known as a Wagner
Ground. The purpose of the Wagner Ground is to reduce stray leakage
currents when the Guard lead (G) is connected to the specimen being
measured.
