3.3.2 Analog Output Calibration (

for units with optional analog output

A set of relay contacts are provided at the rear of the incubator that allows that allow the incubator to output 
analog signals representing the temperature, %CO2, %O2 (for suppressed O

2

 model) and %RH depending on 

the options available in your incubator. This allows the chamber to be connected to an in-house data 
acquisition or alarm system.  
 
The analog data output can be set to operate in either DC (0-5 V) or current (4-20 mA) mode. The factory 
default setting is voltage. The voltage of the analog output can be calibrated using a calibrated digital multi 
meter.
