7.3.  Aux Input Calibration 

Auxiliary (Aux) input calibration is identical to calibrating module voltage, with the 

signals being applied to the MT5 Controller auxiliary inputs. Of course, these are low-

level signal inputs and the voltages must be limited to a safe level. See Appendix E - 

“Multi-Tracer Specifications” for these limits. +/- 5 V is the typical, maximum input range. 

Refer to the “Module Voltage Calibration” for the specifics of each button on this dialog.
