Model PS-DC Remote Amplifier Control Unit Controls

Power (On/Off): Activates the remote amplifier control unit and illuminates LED.
Bridge Excitation (On/Off): When used with a modular strain gage spinning amplifier, this turns the excitation to the bridge on or off without turning off the amplifier. This is done by inverting the polarity of the ± 15V supply pins.
