  • Page 5 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Cardinal 2XX-DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) Analog Output option board. This option board for your 200 Series (Models 200, 205, 210, 215, 220 and 225) Weight Indicator was built with quality and reliability. This document describes the installation, setup and calibration of the board.
  • Page 6 INSTALLATION MODELS 205/210/215, 220 AND 225 Mounting the 2XX-DAC Board NOTE! Should your indicator come with the 2XX-DAC board already installed, the following section describing mounting it does not apply. Proceed to the Cable Installation section. ATTENTION! OBSERVE PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES.
  • Page 7 INSTALLATION, CONT. MODELS 205/210/215, 220 AND 225 Cable Installation 1. Loosen a cable gland connector for the Analog PIN NO. Function Output cable. Common 2. Slip a two wire cable through the gland connector 0 to 10 volt output 0-10V and into enclosure.
  • Page 8 INSTALLATION, CONT. MODEL 200 Mounting the 2XX-DAC Board NOTE! If your indicator is a 200-A, the DAC board is already installed and the following information describing the mounting of the board does not apply. Proceed to the External Cable Installation section. 1.
  • Page 9 INSTALLATION, CONT. MODEL 200 ANALOG OUTPUT CABLE THREADED STUD MAIN BOARD P2 Figure No. 4 Internal Cable Installation 1. Referring to Figure No. 4, locate the Analog Output connector P2 on the main board. 2. Plug the analog output cable 3 pin connector into the main board P2 connector, making sure the polarizing tab is correctly aligned.
  • Page 10 INSTALLATION, CONT. MODEL 200 ANALOG OUTPUT CABLE LIFT GENTLY Figure No. 7 CAUTION! If the main board assembly doesn’t go completely into the enclosure, DO NOT attempt to force it in. Gently lift the rear edge of the main board assembly, and then continue to slide it into the enclosure until the rear panel is against the back edge of the enclosure.
  • Page 11 CALIBRATION OF ANALOG OUTPUT MODELS 200/205/210/215 The analog output has been calibrated at the factory and should require no other adjustment. If, for some reason, it is found necessary or desirable to readjust this output, the procedure listed below may be used. In order to calibrate the analog output, it is first necessary to enter the Calibration mode by gaining access to the calibration switch.
  • Page 12 CALIBRATION OF ANALOG OUTPUT, CONT. MODELS 200/205/210/215 Adj Lo This sets the DAC output to zero for adjusting the level. Adjustment “pots” (10V and 4 mA) on the option board are used. • There is no adjustment for zero volts out. •...
  • Page 13 CALIBRATION OF ANALOG OUTPUT, CONT. MODEL 220 The analog output has been calibrated at the factory and should require no other adjustment. If, for some reason, it is found necessary or desirable to readjust this output, the procedure listed below may be used. In order to calibrate the analog output, it is first necessary to enter the Calibration mode by gaining access to the calibration switch.
  • Page 14 CALIBRATION OF ANALOG OUTPUT, CONT. MODEL 220 ADJ HIIGH This sets the analog output to VOLTS OUT= level for adjusting the level. Adjustment potentiometers “pots” (10V and 20 mA) on the option board are used. • Adjust the 10V pot for the maximum voltage output entered for VOLTS OUT=. •...
