Control Signal
Adjustment
GCA 163 and GCA164
The offset (start point) and span of the control signal can be adjusted. The offset,
Uo, can be adjusted between 0 to 5 Vdc. The span, ΔU, can be adjusted between
2 to 30 Vdc.
Ys Mechanical positioning range
(100% = angle of rotation 90°)
Yu Control signal
Uo Offset (start point)
ΔU Span
Uo = 0V, ΔU = 2V
The minimum working range for Ys = 100%
1. Uo = 5V, ΔU = 30V The maximum
working range for Ys = 100%
2. Uo = 0V, ΔU ≈ 10V Factory setting
