It is the policy of OMEGA to comply with all worldwide safety and EMC/EMI regulations that
apply. OMEGA is constantly pursuing certification of its products to the European New Approach
Directives. OMEGA will add the CE mark to every appropriate device upon certification.
The information contained in this document is believed to be correct, but OMEGA Engineering, Inc. accepts
no liability for any errors it contains, and reserves the right to alter specifications without notice.
WARNING: These products are not designed for use in, and should not be used for, patient-connected applications.
If the input signal voltage is greater than the A/D card input range a
voltage divider may be used. The OME-DB-8025 provides 2
resistors on each input channel to divide the input voltage signal.
The steps are shown below
Step1. Change R1A (0Ω) resistor to 10 KΩ (0.1%).
Step2. Install 10 KΩ(0.1%) on R1B. (Voltage Signal /2)
V/n : n = R1A/(R1A+R1B)
5.3. Current input
If you want to measure a current signal, you have to install a 250Ω
resistor in
Current signal range: 0 to 20 mA
R1B changed to 250
Voltage = 20 mA x 250Ω = 5V ; Range = 0 to 5V
Formula:
input voltage signal = input current signal x 250Ω
If the input signal voltage is greater than the A/D card input range a
voltage divider may be used. The OME-DB-8125 provides 2
resistors on each input channel to divide the input voltage signal.
The steps are shown below
Step1. Change R1A (0Ω) resistor to 10 KΩ. (0.1%)
Step2. Install 10 KΩ (0.1%) on R1B. (Voltage Signal /2)
V/n : n = R1A/(R1A+R1B)
5.3. Current Input
If you want to measure a current signal, you must change resistor R1B
(0Ω) to 250Ω. The steps are shown as below
Current signal range: 0 to 20 mA
R1B change to 250
Voltage = 20 mA x 250Ω = 5V ; Range = 0 to 5V
Formula:
input voltage signal = input current signal x 250Ω
The built -in CJC Circuitry produces a 10mV per Deg C output with
0.0 Volts @ -273 Deg C. The
OME-A-822 should be protected from
drafts and direct sunlight in order to accurately reflect room
temperature.
CJC Calibration:
1. Connect the OME-A-82X series to the OME-DB-8225 CN1
2.Set OME-A-822HG/DG to Single-Ended Mode
3.set JP1 to 1-2and JP2to 2-3 ( Single-Ended mode)
4.Read the temperature from a Digital thermometer placed near
D1/D2 (See OME-DB-8225 Layout).
5.Read OME-A-82X AI0 (Single-Ended Channel 0)
6.Adjust VR1 until a stable reading of 10mV per deg C is attained.
For example, when the environment temperature is 24 deg C. the
reading value of CJC will be 2.97V
(273 deg c +24 deg c ) X 10 mV/deg c = 2.97V
You will need an A/D channel for CJC calibration. AI0 is reserved for
CJC calibration in single ended mode and CH0-HI & CH0-LO is
reserved for differential mode.
Open thermocouple detection and input filtering are provided on the
OME-DB-8225 by installing 3 resistors and a capacitor on the desired
input channel. For example, if channel 0 is the desired channel,
RA0and RA8 must be removed and RD1 must be installed. These
biasing resistors will slowly pull an open input channel to 0 Vdc. This 0
Vdc condition can be sensed and flagged in software.
If the input voltage signal is greater than the input range of the
OME-A-82X, a voltage divider can be used. The OME-DB-8225
provides 2 resistor locations on each input channel that can be used
to reduce the input voltage signal.
Follow the steps shown below
Step 1. Change RA0 (0 Ω) resistor to 10KΩ (0.1%)
Step 2. Install 10 KΩ (0.1%) on RB0 (Voltage Signal / 2)
V/n : n = RB0 / (RA0+RB0)
7.2. Current input
If you want to measure current input signal, you should change
resistor RA0 (0Ω) to 250Ω . Follow the steps show below
Current Signal range: 0 to 20mA
RA0 change to 250Ω
Voltage =20 ma X 250Ω = 5V ; Range 0 to 5V
Formula:
input voltage signal = input current signal x 250Ω
+5V From PC +5V

If the input voltage signal is greater than the A/D cards input
range, a voltage divider can be used. The OME-DB-8325 provides 2
resistor locations for adding a voltage divider for each input channel.
Follow the steps shown below
Step1. Change RD1 (0Ω) resistor to 10 KΩ (0.1%).
Step2. Install 10 KΩ (0.1%) on RD2. (Voltage Signal /2)
V/n : n = RD1/(RD1+RD2)
4.3. Current input
If you want to measure current input signal, you should change resistor
RD2 (0Ω) resistor to 250Ω. Follow the steps shown below
Current signal range: 0 to 20 mA
RD2 change to 250
Voltage = 20 mA x 250Ω = 5V ; Range = 0 to 5V
Formula:
input voltage signal = input current signal x 250Ω
