SCC-SG Series Strain-Gauge Modules User Guide
SCC-SG01/02 Quarter-Bridge Connection
In a quarter-bridge configuration, you use only one active strain-gauge
element. The following section describes how to connect a quarter-bridge
strain-gauge configuration type I.
Note
NI software supports two quarter-bridge configuration types. However, to measure
the quarter-bridge configuration type II you must use the SCC-SG03. Refer to the
SCC-SG03 Half-Bridge Connection
section for more information.
The SCC-SG01 module label displays the icon shown in Figure 2 and the
SCC-SG02 module label displays the icon shown in Figure 3. These icon
labels also represent the bridge configurations of the modules. On the
SCC-SG
XX
module labels the boxed resistors represent external active
strain-gauge elements.
