2. Set switches S1 and S2, the coarse
scale adjustments, as shown below.
The location of these switches is
shown in Figure 2.

3. Calculate B, the offset counts, from
the equation B=Ɪc-iC/Ɪ -i. For most
applications, B can be negative or
positive.

The Table in step 2 shows that switch
S1 should be set to ON, and S2 should
be set to OFF. The Table in step 4
shows that switch S3 should be set to
ON and S4 should be set to OFF. The
table in step 3 shows that switch S5
should be ON and S6 should be OFF.
