Instrument’s
calibration
– Calibration
The instrument is factory calibrated
with the supplied accelerometers. In
case of other transducers calibration of
the measurement channels should be
performed by the user. Periodic
calibration of standard accelerometers
is also required. In order to select the
calibration function, the user has to
enter the
Calibration
sub-list.
<ENT>
The
Calibration
list consists of two positions:
Vibration
and
TEDS
. If SV 105AF transducer is used, also the
Force
option is available.
4.2.1.
Downloading and uploading TEDS data
– TEDS
If an accelerometer with new TEDS data is connected when the instrument is switched off, then when the
instrument is switching on the TEDS data are downloaded automatically from the accelerometer memory.
TEDS data usually include: serial number, manufacturer name, calibration factor, etc.
The
TEDS
position enables the user to
Download TEDS Data
in case when
the accelerometer is connected during
instrument’s working session (when the
instrument is switched on). It enables
also to
Upload TEDS Data
from the
instrument
to the accelerometer’s TEDS
memory - calibration results, performed
by user.
<ENT>
After entering the
Upload TEDS Data
option the instrument will show a table of
calibration factors stored in transducer’s
memory (
TEDS
) and calibration factors
in instrument’s memory (
MEMORY
),
accordingly
with
last
calibration
performed or TEDS data download. The
user may
Update
calibration factors in
transducer’s memory or
Cancel
TEDS
data upload.
<ENT>
By updating TEDS with calibration
factor, it is possible to provide additional
information:
Calibration Period
and
Initials
of the person responsible for the
calibration. Press the
<ENTER>
push-
button to finally confirm TEDS upload or
the
<ESC>
push-button to cancel the
process.
