Dark Calibration Test
The Dark Calibration Test interrupts the signal path between the IR Photo-Detector
and the remainder of the Sync/Demod Board circuitry. This allows the instrument
to compensate for any voltage levels inherent in the Sync/Demod circuitry that
might effect the calculation of CO concentration. Performing this calibration returns
two offset voltages, One for
CO MEAS
and on for
CO REF
that are automatically
added to the CPU’s calculation routine. The two offset voltages from the last
calibration procedure may be reviewed by the user via the front panel display.
To activate the Dark Calibration procedure or review the results of a previous
calibration, press:
