Use the drop-
down list to select the specific “Module Voltage Channel” to calibrate.
Enter the known
module voltage from your calibration source in the “Actual Module
Voltage” input box, for example, 100.0 as shown above.
The “Measured Module Voltage” box displays the module voltage as currently being
measured by the Multi-Tracer. In the above example, this value is shown as 100.06 V.
Assuming the Multi-Tracer is nominally calibrated, the measured value should be very
close to the actual value. If there is a large discrepancy, this may indicate that the Multi-
Tracer is not properly connected to the voltage source. Be sure to resolve any problem
before continuing.
The “Adjust” button performs an adjustment to the calibration constant that scales the
measured value to match the given actual value. The MT5 system automatically zeros
all signals, so there is no need for a zero or other offset correction. In addition to
adjusting the internal conversion constant, the adjustment process also makes an entry
in the calibration report.
