Section 8. Processing and Math Instructions
8-26
To have the program generate a different random-number sequence each time
it is run, use the Randomize statement with no Number argument to initialize
the random-number generator before RND is called.
To produce random integers in a given range, use this formula:
INT( ( upperbound - lowe 1 ) * RND + lowerbound )
Here, upperbound is the highest number in the range, and lowerbound is the
lowest number in the range.
StrainCalc (Dest, Reps, Source, BrZero, BrConfig, GF, v)
Converts the output of a bridge measurement instruction to microstrain.
Syntax
StrainCalc (Dest, Reps, Source, BrZero, BrConfig, GF, v)
Remarks
Calculates microstrain,
µ∈
, from the appropriate formula for the bridge
configuration. All are electrically full bridges , the quarter bridge, half bridge
and full bridge strain gages refer to the number of active elements (i.e., strain
gages), 1,2, or 4 respectively.
Parameter
& Data Type Enter
Dest Variable to store strain in.
Reps Number of strains to calculate, Destination, source, and zero variables must
be dimensioned accordingly.
BrConfig Bridge configuration code for strain gages The bridge configuration code
can be entered as a positive or negative number:
+ code:
V
r
= −
0 001 . ( ) Source Zero
; bridge configured so its output
decreases with increasing strain.
- code:
V
r
= − −
0 001 . ( ) Source Zero
; bridge configured so output
increases with strain. This is the configuration for a quarter bridge using
CSI’s 4WFB350 Terminal Input Module (i.e., enter the bridge configuration
code as -1 for 1/4 bridge with TIM.)
