    4 Configuring the Amplifier 4.1 Power up the EMGZ 309 1. Connect the first force sensor (see Fig.3 Wiring Diagram EMGZ309) 2. Check whether applying a force in measuring direction (in the direction of the red point) on the first sensor results in a positive output signal. If not, exchange the two signal wires of the corresponding force sensor in the terminal block (terminals 12/13).

    After offset compensation and calibration the system is configured. It can now be put into operation. The following state diagrams (Fig. 10 -12) help to navigate through the parameter setting menu. In the Parameterisation State the EMGZ309 can be brought into the 2 modes: “Parameter Selection” and “Parameter Change”.

    Filter Amplifier Output LCD: Out.Filt Use: The EMGZ309 contains a lowpass filter to prevent noise overlaying to the output signal. This parameter stores the cut off frequency of the filter. The lower the cut off frequency, the more sluggish the output signal will be.
  • Page 21 Operation Manual EMGZ 309 System Force LCD: SysForce Use: The System Force [SysForce] determines the measuring capability of your measuring roller. E.g. If two 500 N sensors are installed in your measuring roller, enter 1000N. If only one 500N sensor is used, enter 500N.
