1. Basic information
Programmable resistance decade MC642 is suitable for automated simulation of different resistance
sensors (temperature, pressure, position, force …). Internal design eliminates “zero resistance effect” which
is typical for most resistance decades.
Resistance value is created via appropriate combination of physical resistors. Decade is equipped with
built-in function of direct simulation of most frequent temperature Pt and Ni sensors. Low thermal voltage
relays and stable resistors are used as main parts of the decade. Actual set values are displayed high
resolution TFT display. MC642 is sophisticated instrument with its own re-calibration procedure. The
procedure enables to correct any deviation in resistance without any mechanical adjustment.
Instrument is especially suitable for automatic testing procedures. RS232 line (optionally IEEE488,
USB and Ethernet bus) is used for connecting decade to the computer.
2. Preparation for use
2.1.
Inspecting package contents, selecting the installation location
Basic package includes the following items:
!
Resistance decade MC642
!
RS232 cable
!
CD with demo program
!
User’s manual
!
Test report
The instrument must be powered by 230/115 V – 50/60 Hz mains. Before powering on the
instruments, place it on a level surface. If the instrument was stored out of range of reference temperatures,
let it stabilize for one hour.
2.2.
Power on
!
Before connecting the instrument to the mains, check the position of the mains voltage selector located
at the rear panel.
!
Plug one end of the power cord into the connector located at the rear panel and connect the other end of
the power cord into a wall outlet.
!
Switch on the mains switch located at the rear panel. Display is lit.
