MODEL 8120 DIGITAL INDICATOR OPTION OPERATION MANUAL 

 

1.0 DESCRIPTION 

The 8120 Instrument Series is a family of premium 
signal conditioning instruments that includes 
models to accommodate virtually all types of 
transducers and signal sources commonly 
encountered in electro-mechanical testing and 
control operations.  The 8120 Instruments are 
available in three forms: Signal Conditioner only; 
Signal Conditioner with Digital Indicator; and 
Signal Conditioner with Digital Indicator and Hi-Lo 
Limits.  The Model numbering system used with the 
8120 Series identifies the form and the type of 
signal source.  This numbering system is further 
explained in Table 1.  From Table 1, it can be seen 
that all models having a Digital Indicator are 
identified by a -_10A or -_30A suffix, with the first 
digit identifying the type of signal source. 
 
 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The 8120 Series instruction manual system is 
designed to provide the user with the following 
documentation: (1) a separate instruction manual for 
each type of Signal Conditioner purchased; (2) an 
instruction manual covering only the Digital 
Indicator section of a 8120 Series instrument, but 
applicable to any -110A or –130A instrument; and 
(3) an instruction manual covering only the Hi-Lo 
Limit section 2 of a 8120 Series instrument, but 
applicable to any –130A instrument.  It is the 
purpose of this manual to cover the Digital Indicator 
section of all -_10A or -_30A instruments. 

 
The Digital Indicator section of any -_10A or -_30A   
instrument consists of a printed circuit board on 
which are mounted the required circuit components 
for digitizing the analog output of the Signal 
Conditioner and the light-emitting-diode (LED) 
display. This board is mounted above the circuit 
board that contains the components for the Signal 
Conditioner.  The digits that comprise the display 
are mounted on a small board, which is affixed to 
the digitizer board with a right-angle printed-circuit 
board header. The -_30A instruments contain an 
additional printed-circuit board for the Hi-Lo Limit 
circuitry. 
 
The LED display is comprised of six orange digits 
with polarity sign.  The 0.4-inch height of the digits, 
combined with the inherent brilliance of an LED 
type of display, make the display easily discernible 
in normal room lighting.  The display is viewed 
through the red plastic front panel of the instrument 
to provide filtering of external light and enhance the 
display brilliance.  The front panel is opaque except 
for that portion through which the display is 
viewed.  A typical 8120 Instrument with Digital 
Indicator is shown in Figure 1.
