I'm not absolutely certain but I believe the latest Newall scales have the electronics that drives the inductive position sensing circuit incorporated into the scale head so they now output the more common quadrature signal that is used by glass and magnetic scales.

Earlier Newall DRO's had analogue electronics in the scale and the digital conversion was performed in the readout head which resulted in a complex and unique interface.

The Newall method of position sensing is similar in some respects to a Linear Voltage Displacement Transducer (LVDT).
