Example of Determining Gain and Offset
A two-point calibration method is used.
Perform the following steps in WAGO-I/O-
CHECK
:
1. Select a channel and signal type under
Channel settings
.
In this example, signal type
„0-10 V” has been selected.
2. Enable user calibration under
Calibration
.
3.
Set the value for the calibration offset to “0”.
4. Set the value for the calibration gain to
“1”.
5. Specify the 1st process value.
6. Read the expected output voltage on the measuring instrument.
Example:
Process value 1 (y1) = 1 V
At 1 V, the expected output voltage (x1) = 0.97 V
7. Specify the 2nd process value.
8. Read the expected output voltage on the measuring instrument.
Example:
Process value 2 (y2) = 9 V
At 9 V, the expected output voltage (x2) = 9.05 V
9. Insert all calculated values into the respective equations.
You obtain the values for the calibration gain and offset sought as the result.
Example:
Calibration gain:
m = (y2
– y1) / (x2 – x1)
m = (9 V
– 1 V) / (9.05 V – 0.97 V) = 0.99
Calibration offset:
b = y1
– (m × x1)
b = 1 V
− (0.99 × 0.97 V) = 0.04 V
10.
Enter the calculated gain value (“0.99”) in WAGO-I/O-
CHECK
.
11. Convert the result for the calibration offset based on the process value
resolution:
0.04 V / 0.000305 V per digit = 131 digit
12.
Enter the calculated offset value (“131”) in WAGO-I/O-
CHECK
