Connecting Two or More Amplifier Units
Use a Calculating Unit to connect Amplifier Units when performing calculations between
Amplifier Units and to prevent mutual interference between Sensor Heads.
The number of Amplifier Units that can be connected differs depending on the functions to
be used.
• Supply power to all connected Amplifier Units at the same time.
• When connecting two or more Amplifier Units, the response times (maximum values) are as
follows:
<Response time if mutual interference prevention is set to ON>
