Calibration of strain gage sensors
Calibration is necessary in order to specify the relationship between the electrical
signals measured by the connected sensors and the measured values to be
displayed. A two-point calibration procedure is used here. Normally the sensors
have a test and calibration certificate containing details of the electrical signals.
The typical certificate might look like the example shown below, where the most
important values are labeled.
