The input can only be calibrated when a correct input 
signal is applied. 

Adjustments can be made from -10.0 

to +10.0°C, and 0.1 is the smallest increment that can 
be used.

Click 

OK

 to write the change to the transmitter. The 

display will show ‘Waiting’, and then ‘Input Updated’. 
Click 

Close

 to exit the calibration screen. (It is not 

necessary to program changes to the transmitter aft er 
calibration.)

At the time of calibration, a date and time stamp is 
recorded in the transmitter and displayed in the 

Input 

Zero Adjust

 panel as shown.

Calibration information is also stored in a text fi le  on 
your computer and can be accessed by clicking 

Logs

, or 

by navigating to the folder: 

My Documents

TM Setup

/

cal serialnumber.txt

If you change the input type (i.e. from RTD to T/C), the 
calibration value will be cleared.

 Changing the range 

scaling does not clear the calibration.

See Appendix B for information on errors & other 
dialogues that may appear during zero adjustment.
