    Strain gauge: Electronic component that will change its resistance while its length has changed. Strain gauges are used in the FMS force sensors for acquisition of the feedback value. Subprint: Electronic extension module which can be plugged to the main board of the electronic unit if required.
  • Page 5: System Description

    EMGZ622A/642A. The electronic unit amplifies the mV signals of each measuring range depending on configuration. The resulting feedback values are shown in the display in [N] (lbs if required) for each measuring range.
  • Page 6 Operating Manual EMGZ622A/642A Strain gauge amplifier The strain gauge amplifier provides the highly accurate power supply (5VDC or 10VDC) for 1 or 2 force sensors per measuring point. The force sensors can be wired using 4 wire circuit or 6 wire circuit. This allows accurate control of the bridge excitation even with very long cabling.
