Subject to the conditions:
¡ñ Room temperature is 23ºC ±5ºC. ¡ñ When 30 minutes or more have elapsed
after power was turned on.
¡ñ Filter is set to 10 or Line. ¡ñ Sampling rate is set to 1 second.
¡ñ GND terminal is connected to ground. - *2

¡ñ Remote sensing is not available when a NDIS connector is used. ¡ñ When a bridge box is used,
the connection needs to be 4-wire or 6-wire full bridge. When connecting with a Half bridge
(Opposite side), an additional bridge box is required. ¡ñ Bridge excitation: Constant current
drives a strain gauge type sensor or a 4-wire full bridge. ¡ñ The shunt calibration is available
only when the connection is using a 3-wire, 4-wire quarter bridge, 5-wire full bridge, or 6-wire
full bridge.
