Error Message (
Error
)
An error message indicates that the calibration or scaling process was not successful.
After the error message is displayed, the meter reverts to input 2 during calibration or
scaling, allowing the appropriate input signal to be applied or programmed.
The error message might be caused by any of the following conditions:
1.
Input signal is not connected to the proper terminals or it is connected backwards.
2.
Minimum input span requirements not maintained.
3.
Input 1 signal inadvertently applied to calibrate input 2.
Minimum Input Span
The minimum allowed input span is 1 Hz, which is the minimum difference between input
1 and input 2 signals required to complete the calibration or scaling of the meter.
Multi-Point Linearization (
nopts
)
Up to 32 linearization points can be selected under the
nopts
function. The multi-
point linearization can be used to linearize the display for non-linear inputs.
Linearization data can be entered using a known accurate signal source (
InP
1-32
)
and then entering the desired/corresponding meter reading (
dSP 1-32
) for that input
signal level. These points are established via direct entry (
SCALE
) or with an external
calibration signal (
CAL
).
Calibration Units (
CAL
UNITS
)
Enter the units associated with the desired scale values. Selecting this unit allows the
meter to perform automatic unit conversions.
Pulse Input Time Unit (
Time
UNIT
)
This is the time component to be used when calibrating a number of input pulses per
time unit to equal a certain display value.
For example, if the inputs being entered in pulses/second the time unit would be set
to seconds.
