    Before changing functions or high/low limit values, do not forget to cancel the [LOCK] state. • Power ON and the WGI-400A starts up in measuring state with [LOCK] LED turned ON/ OFF depending on the state before turning OFF the power.
  • Page 16: Digital Zero Function

    • Short-circuit between rear terminals (INPUT) COM and No. 1 (Zero) to conduct digital Zero function. This function is available when the [LOCK] LED is ON. • When external control input terminals are set to OFF, the WGI-400A shall be in measuring state after conducting the digital Zero function.
  • Page 17: Calibration Function

    3-4 CALIBRATION FUNCTION There are 3 calibration functions appropriate for the required purpose, that is, ‘Actual load calibration’ that calibrates data by applying already known load to transducers (sensors), ‘Sensitivity registering calibration’ that conducts calibration by registering a sensitivity value written in the transducer inspection report, and ‘Numeric value registering calibration’...
  • Page 18: Sensitivity Registering Calibration Function

    3-4-2 Sensitivity Registering Calibration Function This is a function that calibrates data by registering rated output of a transducer without applying the actual load. Use a transducer having ‘rated capacity: 1 kHz’ and ‘rated output: 2.004 mV/V.’ An example shall be explained to have the indicator display ‘1.000’...
  • Page 19: Numeric Value Registering Calibration

    3-4-3 Numeric Value Registering Calibration This is a function that calibrates data by setting the indicated value to a reference (Initial) value. Conduct this function after the actual load and sensitivity registering calibrations. This function is used for pressure transducers for absolute pressure measurement or when already load is applied and unable to obtain the actual load state.
  • Page 20: Comparator Function

    3-5 COMPARATOR FUNCTION 3-5-1 High/Low Limit Comparator Function High/low limit comparator function is a function that compares the indicated value with the high/low limit value and outputs the compared result. The result of comparison is obtained as open collector output from the rear terminal board and is indicated on the [HIGH]/[OK]/[LOW] LEDs on the front panel.
  • Page 21: Pattern Function

    ‘0.’ 3-7 LEVEL TEST FUNCTION Level test function is used for setting the indication of the WGI-400A to a predetermined indicated value. It is used for adjusting the external connected devices or testing the output of the WGI-400A.
  • Page 22: Teds Function

    3-8 TEDS FUNCTION TEDS function of the WGI-400A is a function that reads excitation voltage, rated output, and rated capacity from transducer data with TEDS function (Transducer Data Electronic Sheet) built-in and automatically registers sensitivity and decimal point position. 1) TEDS Function with Initial Value Set sensors in no-load state as same as in sensitivity registering calibration.
