Types of Calibrations
The PC Configurator software allows you to perform manual, automatic,
or remote calibrations. Automatic and remote calibrations require a facto-
ry-provided remote calibration unit (RCU) that automatically switches the
calibration gases for you; manual calibrations are performed without an
RCU, and gases are switched manually.
Manual Calibration
The user defines the calibration gas values and physically switches the
gases.
Automatic Calibration
This is an option that allows the system to calibrate itself. The user defines
the calibration gas values, the time each gas will flow through the sensor,
and the frequencies at which automatic calibrations will be performed (for
example, every four hours, every two days, etc.). The system calibrates
itself at those predefined times.
Do not select Automatic Calibration unless you have a Remote Cali-
bration Unit (RCU).
Remote Calibration
The user defines the calibration gas values, but interactively determines
how long each calibration gas should flow from the RCU and into the
sensor by clicking to accept the values when the gas is stable. The gases,
however, are automatically switched on/off using the RCU.
Do not select Remote Calibration unless you have this option.
