The CED 4003 is a simple linear 10k potentiometer, intended to provide manually adjustable signal division. It is cased and has BNC leads that allow input connection from a voltage source such as a 1401 DAC waveform output, with an output connection suitable for an ADC waveform input.
The potentiometer output is controlled by a slider, with markings and writeable labels.
Case size: 166mm x 70mm x 28mm, lead length 2 metres.
The input voltage should not exceed 30V.
The CED 4704 V2 is a linear potentiometer with a USB interface. The linear position of the potentiometer can be streamed back as a percentage of full scale to the USB host to a resolution of 0.1%. The interface is a Virtual Serial Port, through which simple commands are sent to the device and responses returned as text strings.
The potentiometer is powered from the USB port and draws 50mA.
SL or ?SL return the position of the slider as a percentage of full scale xxx.x or xxx | |
ST | start a stream of slider percentage returns at the current rate until SS received |
SS | stop the sending of slider percentages |
SRn | set the time interval of percentage value sending in milliseconds (n = 10 to 32767, default 100) |
FL | give a 200ms flash of the green LED on the slider box |
VCn | set printing values right-justified (RJ) in n columns, n = 1 to 10; enable using OP11 |
OPnv / ?OPn set / interrogate options stored in internal EPROM: | |
OP00 / OP01 do not / do add LF after CR in returned values | |
OP10 / OP11 print single column LJ / print in n columns RJ (n set by VCn) | |
OP20 / OP21 print decimal tenths / print integer values only | |
OP30 / OP31 print slider range as 0.0 to 100.0 / print as ±50.0 with centre zero | |
?ER | cancel a red LED and return the last error code; returns "000" if none |
?ID | return "CED slider pot xx" where xx is the last two digits of the serial number |
?VN | return the firmware revision |
?SN | return the full serial number (SLxxxx) |
?TO | return the travel offset that is subtracted before reporting each slider position value |
