7.4 Converting Input Values (Scaling Function)

The 9018-50 Clamp On Probe provides 0.2 V output when measuring 10 A. So
Scaling should be set to display 10 A with 0.2 V input (and 0 A with 0 V input).
Selecting a Clamp Type ___________________________________________
1. Move the flashing cursor to the [Clamp] item, and select [Select].
The flashing cursor moves to the [Model] item.
2. Select [9000 ].
The flashing cursor moves to the [Clamp].
3. Select [9018-50] from the clamp list and select [Confirm].
Units, scaling method, and ratio are set automatically.
4. Select the same range of the clamp when using the range selection type.
Select [10A] here.
To reset Scaling settings:
Move the flashing cursor to the [Setting], and select [Reset].
To copy the scaling setting to another channel
The Channel screen - [Scaling] sheet can be used to copy a setting.
See: "7.8 Copying settings to other channels (calculation No.) (Copy function)" (p.160)
Using the Scaling and Variable functions (p.155) in combination:
The full span of output from a sensor can be displayed. (p.157)
At factory shipping, automatic correction of the variable function (p.311) is set to
[On].
At this time, the Variable setting is altered so that it is linked to (dependent upon)
the vertical axis (voltage axis) range and scaling settings. If you want the Vari-
able function setting to take priority, use either of the following procedures:
• Set Scaling first, and then set the Variable function
• Set a Variable value before Scaling, and then set Scaling.
When automatic correction of the Variable function (Variable Auto Adjustment) is
disabled ([Off]), the Scaling and Variable settings are unlinked (independent of
one another).

However, you may need to switch the vertical axis (voltage axis) range to suit
actual input values.
For example, to display ±0.2 V at full scale, set the vertical display to 20 mV per
division (the instrument's 20 mV/div range)
For the rated capacity and rated output, consult the calibration record of the
strain gauge transducer to be used. Set as follows:
With scaling, signals from the sensor are
acquired as current values.
A/B cursors and gauges are displayed
with current (Ampere) values.

When a calibration factor is stated in the strain gauge transducer inspec-
tion records ________________________________________________________
Set the [Method] item on the [Scaling] sheet to [Ratio].
The value of the calibration factor (0.001442 [G]) is set as the conversion ratio.

Move the flashing cursor to the channel to set, and making settings as follows.
Using a strain gauge with a Gauge Factor other than 2.0_______________
The 8969 or U8969 Strain Unit measures the Gauge Rate
as 2.0.
When using the other strain gauge, the Gauge Factor
needs to be set as the conversion ratio. For example, if the
Gauge Factor is 2.1, the conversion ratio is 0.952 (2
÷2.1).
The scaling (conversion ratio) needs to be calculated to include both Gauge Fac-
tor and physical value conversions. In this case, the conversion ratio setting is
the product of the conversion ratios of the Gauge Factor and measurement unit
scaling.
The Gauge Factor component of the conversion ratio is 0.952, and the physical
value component is 0.001442*
Conversion Ratio = 0.952 x 0.001442 = 0.0013728
As in Example 3, enter [0.0013728] as the conversion ratio.
* To convert measurement values to physical values when using a strain gauge,
calculate using the Young's modulus or Poisson's ratio of the measurement
