CALIBRATING METER INPUTS
Metering values are scaled according to the input type specified
on the Metering Channels tab (Click or turn to
), and a calibration constant is applied to all input
types except Millivolt and Degree. The calibration constant
converts the scaled value to a calibrated value, corresponding to
the actual reading on the parameter being monitored. The
calibration process sets that calibration constant.
To calibrate a metering channel:
1.
Choose the channel you want to calibrate
by selecting the corresponding row in the
Meter Channels tab.
2.
Click the “wrench” icon on the far right side
of the grid.
3.
The calibration window will display the
current channel, scaled value and
resolution.
4.
To change the value of the metering
channel, enter the actual channel reading
in the box for New Value and press the
Calibrate button. AutoLoad Plus will
automatically calculate a new calibration
constant.
Calibration may also be done from the front
panel of the ARC Plus Touch.
