"What about measurment accuracy in FP-AI-100 and FP-AO-200 cd.....

[abrams]

Dear Mr Aaron.
Thank you very much for your answer
Would you mind if you provide me more information about this problem, I mean what kind of measurment I should do in order to gain best score (if we talk about the measurment's accuracy of FP-AI-100 and FP-AO-200) where I should pay attention?
I must create a model of accuracy FP
It will be very kind of you if you will send me this information on my e-mail address pabramcz@elka.pw.edu.pl
Thank you a lot for everything one more time.


Best regards
Peter"

Peter,

For the FP-AO-200 module, the error can be modeled as follows:
RealOutput = SpecifiedOutput +/- Offset +/-(Gain*SpecifiedOutput)
where
RealOutput is the value that is truly being output by the FP-AO-200 as measured by a high precision calibrator/DMM
SpecifiedOutput is the value that you have written to the FP-AO-200
Offset is the published offset error for the FP-AO-200 under your operating conditions
Gain is the published gain error percentage for the FP-AO-200 under your operating conditions.

Likewise for the FP-AI-100, the input accuracy can be modeled by:
MeasuredSignal=RealSignal +/- Offset +/- (Gain*RealSignal) +/- Noise Spec
where
MeasuredSignal is the value that is being read(reported) by the FP-AI-100
RealSignal is the value of the
signal input to the FP-AI-100
Offset is the published offset error for the FP-AI-100 under your operating conditions
Gain is the published gain error percentage for the FP-AI-100 under your operating conditions.

As a general rule, the best accuracy will be achieved by configuring the range of your input channel to most closely match the span of your input signal. For example, if you have a 0-5 Volt signal, choosing the 0-6 V range on the FP-AI-100 will result in a more accurate reading than choosing the +/-36 Volt range.

Hi Aaron

We have a lagacy hardware system using FP-1001 with analog inputs of FP-AI-110 (6 unit).

Using the FP explorer, FP-AI-110 @ 1 was working properly and montoring, but the FP-AI-110 @ 2 - @ 6, everytime i hit the start monitoring the status always  timeout period has expired. All the FP-AI-110 have power. I did try to reprogram and dupilcate 110 @ 1 and just change the addess from 2 to 6 i'm still having the same promt message.
