Accuracy and stability are obtained through the use of a “Star Bridge” circuit comprised of four temperature stable, precision resistors.  \nRice Lake Weighing Systems offers four models ofthe Ranger Series Simulators.  \nFigure 1-1. Ranger 1, 3 and 5 Simulators  \nFeatures  \nRanger 1:  \n• Bridge impedance of 700 ohms  \n• 10-turn continuously variable output from 0 to 3 mV/V.  \nRanger 3:  \n• Bridge impedance of 350 ohms  \n• Nine calibrated outputs-eight 0.5 mV/V steps from-0.5 mV/V to 3.0 mV/V and an additional +4.5 mV/V step. The-0.5 and +4.5 mV/V settings are useful for performing A/D offset and gain calibrations in Rice Lake indicators.  \nRanger 5:  \n• This has the same features as the Ranger 3 with the addition of a 3-range, 10-turn locking vernier.  \nThese three Ranger Series Simulators connect using binding posts color coded to the ISA S37.8 standard, and will accept standard banana plugs or up to 14 gauge wire.  \nFigure 1-2.
