    Srv02-series flexgage - rotary flexible link user manual 1. Description the rotary flexible link consists of a strain gage which is mounted at the clamped end of a thin stainless steel flexible link. The output is an analog signal proportional to the deflection of the link. The system is designed to...

    1.1 modular options quanser values itself for the modularity of its experiments. The srv02 rotary plant module serves as the base component for the rotary family of experiments. This modular philosophy facilitates the change from one experimental setup to another with relative ease of work and a val...

    2. System nomenclature and components figure 1 & figure 2 below depict the flexgage module. The standard flexgage is equipped with a strain gage sensor resulting in an analog signal proportional to the deflection of the tip. Refer to the following table to associate the components with their corresp...

    In the following sections, it is also assumed that the flexgage is connected as described in the typical connections table above. As you can see in figure 4 above, the flexgage circuit has 2 adjustable potentiometers. One is for the offset adjustment and the other is for the gain adjustment. Build a...

    Your measurement should now be reading 1 volt. If you do not read 1 volt, gently adjust the gain potentiometer such that you are reading 1 volt. *it is strongly urged to not adjust the gain potentiometer too much as the system should have already been calibrated and should not have drifted a signifi...
