Zeroing Signal Output - HP 5890 Series II Plus Reference Manual

Signal Output
A standard signal channel, controlled via
A second signal channel, controlled via
Accessory 19242A (Communications Interface Board ), or Option 560/
Accessory 19254A (RS•232 ), is installed.
Output sources include detector signal(s), heated zone or oven
temperatures, carrier gas flow rates, column compensation run data, or
test chromatographic data. If both signal channels are present, each may
output information simultaneously from the same source, or from two
different sources.
For either channel, two separate levels of ANALOG output are provided,
depending upon the analog signal cable used: +1 V or 1 mV.
0 to +1 mV:
-0.01 to +1 V:
The two output levels are independent, and may be connected
simultaneously to separate data•receivingdevices.
Note: A tick mark (electrical pulse) is produced at the +1 mV analog
output when either
times out (run time elapses). These marks locate beginning and ending
points in a chromatogram plotted at a continuously running strip chart
recorder.
