Installation Hints for Best Performance This section offers several suggestions which will help you get the best performance from your measurement system. The logic input signals are comparitively small and can easily be corrupted by the comparatively high level of electrical noise which can be created by electrical machinery such as motors, welding systems, discharge lighting, AC power inverters and solenoids.

When using multi-core screened cable to connect several displays to several sensors, please be sure to use one twisted pair for each display and sensor. Do NOT use a wire from one pair for signal positive and a wire from another pair for signal negative, as this will prevent the twisted cables form cancelling any induced electrical noise, and can couple noise from one channel to another.
