Viatran DL Series Analog Input Process Meter Instruction Manual

Calibrating the Meter with External Source (

Cal

)

Note: To scale the meter without a signal
source refer to Scaling the Meter (

SCALE)

page 38

The meter can be calibrated to display the process variable in
engineering units by applying the appropriate input signal and following
the calibration procedure.
The use of a calibrated signal source is strongly recommended to
calibrate the meter.

Warm up the meter for at least 15 minutes

before performing calibration to ensure

specified accuracy.
