Offset voltages compensation applies to bridge measurements. In addition to
RevDiff and MeasOff parameters discussed in Offset Voltage Compensation
(p.
347),
CRBasic bridge measurement instructions include the RevEx parameter that
provides the option to program a second set of measurements with the excitation
polarity reversed. Much of the offset error inherent in bridge measurements is
canceled out by setting RevDiff, MeasOff, and RevEx to True.
Measurement speed can be slowed when using RevDiff, MeasOff, and RevEx.
When more than one measurement per sensor are necessary, such as occur with
the BrHalf3W(), BrHalf4W(), and BrFull6W instructions, input and excitation
reversal are applied separately to each measurement. For example, in the four-
wire half-bridge (BrHalf4W()), when excitation is reversed, the differential
measurement of the voltage drop across the sensor is made with excitation at both
polarities and then excitation is again applied and reversed for the measurement of
the voltage drop across the fixed resistor. Further, the results of measurement
instructions (X) must be processed further to obtain the resistance value. This
processing requires additional program execution time.
