In the figure above, the I/O Modules are configured as follows:
Gauge
Type
Calculates
Elongation?
Length/Elongation Port

1
Master
Yes
Elongation
2
Middle Slave
Yes
Elongation
3
Middle Slave
Yes
Elongation
4
Last Slave
No
Length
This configuration assumes that the Auto-Elongation feature is enabled for the
Parallel Data Output. This feature automatically switches the Length/Elongation
port to output Elongation Ratio/Differential Speed when available. The last gauge
in the system (#4 in this example) outputs its measured length, which is the final
product length.
