Measuring strain
This section describes how to configure settings on the individual settings screen when measuring
strain or vibration with a strain gage or strain gage-type converter.
You can use [Input] on the settings list screen to configure the settings. (See p. 50.)
Applicable modules: U8554, LR8534
Measuring strain See “11.2 Measuring Strain” (p. 270).
Converting measured values
using scaling based on the
gage factor or a strain gage-
type converter’s rated value
See “1.5 Using the Scaling Function” (p. 42).
Connecting a strain gage or
strain gage-type converter
See “Connecting a strain gage or strain gage-type converter” in the
