maintain excitation by applying one excitation pulse for every 16 cycles of VW frequency. The
VW frequency is provided as both a 200mv(pp) signal at F1, and as a 5v(pp) 50
Ω
output at F2.
The 8020-42 will provide continuous VW frequency output until the CLOCK control line is
brought low. At this time, the 8020-42 will go back to sleep

3.3 Stand Alone Configuration
When configured in the Stand Alone mode, the 8020-42 will provide continuous excitation and
frequency output from a single Vibrating Wire gage. All that is needed is a 12V (nominal)
voltage source and a frequency counter to read the VW frequency. In order to configure the
8020-42 for Stand Alone mode, internal jumpers JP1, JP2 and JP3 must be set across pins two
and three. Remove the cover of the 8020-42 and set the jumpers:
