OUTPUT DAC
This test steps the analog output DAC from
0 volts to 10 volts in 1 volt steps, and measures
the resultant output voltage with the system ADC.
It then compares the results with the limits shown
to the left and, if it is outside any limit, it will set the
error number corresponding to that voltage level.

OFFSET DAC
This test steps the sensor input amplifier offset
DAC from 0 volts to 5 volts in 1 volt steps, and
measures the resultant output voltage with the
system ADC. It then compares the results with the
limits stated to the left and, if outside any limit, it
will set the error number corresponding to that
voltage level.
