Setting an Offset Value
Using MX+B
5. Press ENTER to set the selected limit.
6. Press ENABLE to start the limits testing.
Refer to the Programmers Manual for instructions on setting the limits remotely.
The offset function provides a means of displaying the difference between a measured
value and a stored offset value. This type of measurement is referred to as a relative
measurement.
There are two methods of entering an offset value into the Meter. The first method is to
enter a specified number into the offset register either through the front-panel or over the
remote interface. Previously stored values are replaced with the new value. The offset
value is stored in volatile memory and is set to zero when power is applied to the Meter
or the Meter receives a reset through the remote interface.
The second method is to measure the desired reference value through the Meter’s input
connections and press Z. The measured value is placed into the offset register and the
display immediately starts showing the difference between measurements and the stored
value.
To enter an offset value through the front-panel:
1. Press J
2. Press the MATH soft key
3. Press the OFFSET soft key.
4. Press ENTER to set the value in the offset register.
The MX+B function provides a means of calculating a linear value using a measured
value (X) and two constants: M and B. The constant M represents a gain, while the
constant B represents an offset.
Since the high and low limits are independent of each other, both high and
low limit conditions could be satisfied by a measurement. In this case, the
Meter gives priority to the low limit condition by displaying LOW and
setting the low bit of the questionable data event register.
The Zero key cannot be used to zero a DB or DBM measurement. Refer to
“Measuring AC Voltage” in Chapter 4 of this manual.
Limits and Offset are Math functions that cannot be active simultaneously.
With the desired digit selected, press the soft key labeled -- to decrement the digit
or ++ to increment the character. The right most character is the multiplier. This
character can be set to p, n, , m, k, M, or G.
To select the digit to adjust, press either <-- or -->.
