Note 1.
The resolution is given as the minimum value that can be read when a ZX-TDA@1 Amplifier Unit is connected. This value is taken 15 min-
utes after turning ON the power with the average number of operations set to 256.
2.
The linearity is given as the error in an ideal straight line displacement output.
3.
These figures are representative values that apply for the measurement mid-point, and are for when the provided actuator is used, with
the actuator moving downwards. If the actuator moves horizontally or upwards, the operating force will be reduced. Also, if an actuator
other than the standard one is used, the operating force will vary with the weight of the actuator itself.
4.
These figures are representative values that apply for the mid-point of the measurement range.

Note 1.
The response speed of the linear output is calculated as the measurement period
×
(average count setting + 1).
The response speed of the judgement outputs is calculated as the measurement period
×
(average count setting + 1).
2.
The output can be switched between a current output and voltage output using a switch on the bottom of the Amplifier Unit.
3.
Setting is possible via the monitor focus function.
4.
A Calculating Unit (ZX-CAL2) is required.

Note 1.
Use a stabilized power supply separate from other devices
and power systems for the Amplifier Unit, particularly when
high resolution is required.
2.
Always wire correctly. Incorrect wiring may damage the Unit.
Use a different ground for the linear output from the normal
ground.
3.
The blue line (0 V) is the 0 V power supply line. The shield
wire (linear output GND) is used together with the black line
(linear output) to connect the linear output. Wire these lines
correctly. Always ground the linear output terminal even when
the linear output is not used.
