5.1 X2, X5 and DIV2 link
The LVC compensates for changes in primary signal amplitude by producing an internal error signal that is the ratio between
the primary and secondary signals. If the transducer output signal is too high or too, low errors may occur that can degrade the
performance of the LVC/transducer combination. For these transducers the X2, X5 or DIV2 input gain link must be used.
Calculating transducer Full Scale Output
In general, transducer sensitivity is quoted as V/V/inch where:
V = output of the transducer V = primary voltage inch = mechanical position of the transducer from null (usually mid mechanical
range).
To calculate the transducer full scale output, simply multiply all three together.
Set the X2, X5, DIV2 link as shown in the table below:
Transducer Full Scale Output Comment Input Gain Link setting
400 mV FSO to 2500 mV FSO Standard range Link ON X1
150 mV FSO to 400 mV FSO Low output transducer Link ON X2
55 mV FSO to 150 mV FSO Very low output transducer Link ON X5
2500 mV FSO to 5000 mV FSO High output transducer Link ON DIV2
