4.2. Instrument’s calibration – Calibration
The instrument is factory calibrated with the
supplied accelerometers. In case of using
other transducers the calibration of the
measurement channels has to be done.
Periodic
calibration of standard
accelerometers is also required. In order to
select a calibration function the user has to
enter the Calibration sub-list.
<ENT>
The Calibration list consists of six positions: Channel 1, Channel 2 … Channel 6 which are used to
perform the calibration of each channel of the unit.
4.3.1. Downloading and uploading TEDS data – TEDS
If accelerometer with new TEDS system is connected before switching the instrument on the TEDS data are
downloading automatically. TEDS data usually include: serial number, producer name, calibration factor, etc.
The TEDS position enables the user to
Download TEDS Data,
when
accelerometer is connected during
instrument’s working session. It enables
also to Upload TEDS Data from the
instrument to the accelerometer’s TEDS
memory - calibration results, performed by
user.

4.3.2. Calibration of the instrument channels – Channel x
The Channel x sub-list consists of three
positions: Calibr. By Sensitivity, Calibr.
By Measurement, which are used to
perform
the calibration and
Calibration History used for checking the
parameters of the previous calibrations.
<ENT>
Notice: The calibration factor is always added to the results in the Level Meter, 1/1 Octave,
1/3 Octave, FFT and other modes.
Notice: The calibration level and the calibration result is expressed in different units depending
on the settings of the instrument. The metric or non-metric Vibration units are set in the
Vibration Units (path: <Menu> / Auxiliary Setup / Vibration Units). Additionally, the linear or
logarithmic units are set in the Display Scale (path: <Menu> / Display / Display Scale).
