Appendix B: Adding A Code Resistor To A Custom Sensor - Fourier TriLog User Manual

Appendix B: Adding a code resistor to
a custom sensor
In order for TriLog to automatically identify a sensor, it must have a code resistor.
Figure 38 shows the TriLog sensor plug configuration.
You must connect the resistor between the ID resistor input and the GND input.
Sensor supply (+5V)
When you define a custom sensor in the MultiLab program you must choose one
sensor from the list provided. Note its position in the list and look in Table 1 to find
the resistance.
