After the last point is entered, PCCU32 will automatically calibrate the RTD.
If electing to use bias as a calibration method, the RTD temperature will always be biased by this
value. The bias does not affect the fixed temperature that is specified on the Setup tab.
Place the flow computer in Hold mode by selecting
Calibration
on the tool bar.
Select the measurement tube in the navigation tree.
On the Calibration tab, select
Tf
from the Calibration drop-down menu.
Click in the Bias field to open the Enter RTD Bias window and enter a new value.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To enter a negative value in the Bias field, use a minus sign (-) before
the value.
Click
OK
.
On the Setup tab, select
RTD Installed
for the RTD temperature and bias value to be
used.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The current temperature value (Tf) will increase or decrease to reflect
the effect of the bias. The bias value will not affect the Fixed Temperature, which is specified
on the Setup tab.
Click
Close
to exit Calibration and exit Hold mode.

Typical external devices include 4-20 mA or 1-5 V transmitters. Use the values in
calibration points for these types of devices.
