The 16-Channel Monitor Screen (see Figure 18) displays the readings and temperatures of any
enabled transducers. Any under-range or over-range conditions are highlighted in red and the
channels that are currently being read is highlighted in green and yellow. (Note: Any channels
that are disabled will be "grayed-out". Any channels that are enabled but do not have a
transducer connected will display 99999 and be highlighted in red). Hovering the mouse in the
lower-left corner of any channel's frame (border) displays the tooltip: "Double-click to expand".
Double-clicking where indicated activates the reading screen (Figure 19) for that channel:
This screen displays the transducer information along with the reading in digits or
microstrain (μE), the calculated reading voltage, the calculated reading current, the
temperature of the transducer, and the calculated voltage and current that is representative of
the temperature. The screen updates based on ENABLE and CLOCK timing from the Data
Acquisition System.
If monitoring the 8020-59 outputs is not of interest, then click Activate/Exit from the
Configuration Window to put the 8020-59 into low power Standby (Sleep) mode, waiting
for the proper control input signals (refer to Section 4.2.2, for signal timing details).
