  • Page 11: 6-Wire Connection

    SHIELD CAUTION The strain gauge type sensor excitation voltage of the F130 is 2.5V or 10V (selectable by setting). Set within the maximum excitation voltage of the strain gauge type sensor you use, and then make connection. Use exceeding the maximum excitation voltage may cause abnormal heating and damage.
  • Page 12: Connections To Terminal Block

    A1 to A9 and B6 to B9 are unnecessary in this specification, please do not connect input and output signal lines to them. Do not apply the voltage from the outside, or do not short-circuit with parts. It may cause malfunction of F130 and external equipment.

  • Page 19: 4.Calibration Method

    4-1. What is Calibration? Calibration is performed for matching the F130 to a strain gauge type sensor. That is, F130 must be properly adjusted to indicate 10.00kN when an actual load of 10kN is placed on the strain gauge type sensor.

  • Page 21: Preparation For Calibration

    Minimum data items required for performing proper calibration are: Excitation voltage, Minimum scale division, Sensor rated output value, and Sensor rated capacity value. Initial setting data are registered when F130 is powered on or it restarts. Excitation voltage selection (m) Select the bridge voltage supplied to the strain gauge type sensor.

    5.MEASUREMENT SETTINGS 5. MEASUREMENT SETTINGS 5-1. Analog Filter Selection (m+2) A low-pass filter is provided for filtering input signals from the strain gauge type sensor and cancelingnoise components. The cut-off frequency can be selected from 3Hz, 10Hz, 30Hz, 100Hz, 300Hz, 1kHz. With an increase in the cut-off frequency, the response becomes faster, but noise components may be indicated.
  • Page 25: 6.Measurement・Hold Functions

    6-1. Measurement Function Measurement value and data update counter The F130 performs A/D conversion at a rate of 3000 times/sec to calculate the measurement value. Each time the measurement value is updated, the data update counter is incremented by one. Since the measurement value and counter value are returned in pairs, how often you see the measurement data of the F130 can be known from the progression of the counter value.
