For example: 
 

>ITEST 8  12 

 

8.000mA 3F8 12.000mA 

70O  


 

The set values remain valid until you give the command ITEST 
without readings or RESET the transmitter.  

 

AQTEST 

Testing the analog outputs for desired readings 

 

 

Use command ‘AQTEST’ to test current values of desired aw or T 
readings. Current output is forced to correspond the chosen values.  

 

AQTEST x yyy.yyy 

 

where: 

x = aw / T / ppm  

 

yyy.yyy = value 

 
For example: 
 

>AQTEST aw 0.5

 

CH1 aw  :    0.5000  aw  

10.000mA 

CH2 T   :    22.3  'C        7.568mA 

 

The set values remain valid until you give the command AQTEST 
without a value or RESET the transmitter.  

Calibration and adjustment 

 

The MMT318 and MMT317 are calibrated as shipped from the 
factory. Typical calibration interval is one year. Depending on the 
application it may be good to make the first calibration check earlier. 

Calibration of the MMT318 and MMT317 can be carried out by the 
user according to the instructions given in this chapter.  

The device can also be sent to Vaisala for calibration. See Vaisala 
Service Centers'
 contact information on page 47.
