3.2. 

Checking the Calibration 

The calibration can be checked in the “Main” tab.  

1.  Click the “Start” button in this window and observe the reading to verify readings. If the red knob of the 

Sensor Replacement Board has been left in the fully clockwise position as in step 5 in section 3.1, the 
calibration at the “P2” calibration point can be verified by checking that the output for “Pressure” is 90%.  

2.  Similarly, if the red knob is turned fully counterclockwise, the reading should be 10%. 

3.3. 

Saving the NVM Data and GUI Configuration Settings 

The GUI settings and NVM contents for this example can be saved to new configuration and NVM dump files. 
Select 

FILE > Save GUI Configuration

 from the top menu, and save the configuration under a new name. In a 

similar way, the NVM dump file can be saved using 

FILE > Save NVM Dump

 and creating a new name.
