    The following tests require a Digital Multimeter, an Indicator and hand tools. The Digital DC Voltmeter should have a reading range from 1 mV to 50 V full-scale. It should be capable of reading differences of one micro-volt per increment. The indicator can be either the Ohaus Defender 3000, or an equivalent commercial indicator.
  • Page 20: Consistency Check

    1. Using a voltmeter, measure and record the excitation voltage supplied by the Indicator. Most Ohaus indicators supply 5 volts dc for the excitation voltage. 2. Using an mV meter, measure and record the signal voltage with no load on the base.
