Calibration
"Calibration" is the operation of matching the TM201
with UTM
Ⅱ
.
This operation is performed on the "Calibration" tab of
the PC application.
The following two kinds of calibration methods are
available for the TM201.
The calibration in the sensor type setting is the equivalent input calibration; normally, only this is
used.
Refer to P.29 "4-3.Procedures of equivalent input calibration and actual load calibration (torque)"
when performing the actual load calibration.
Equivalent input calibration
In this calibration method, only the rated output value (V) and the rated capacity value (one to be
displayed) of UTM
Ⅱ
are input. This method does not involve actual load. Calibration can be easily
performed even when actual load cannot be applied.
For example, the gain is automatically determined by entering the following values:
In case of UTM
Ⅱ
-0.1Nm:
5.000V
-
0.100Nm
In case of UTM
Ⅱ
-2Nm:
5.000V
-
2.000Nm
In case of UTM
Ⅱ
-50Nm:
5.000V
-
50.00Nm
In case of UTM
Ⅱ
-100Nm:
5.000V
-
100.00Nm
Actual load calibration
In this calibration method, the known torque load is applied onto UTM
Ⅱ
and the torque is input.
Accurate calibration with minimal error can be performed.
* Only actual load calibration or equivalent input calibration can be performed.
If actual load cannot be applied, make sure to perform the equivalent input calibration
only.
