The autozeroing function uses four parameters:
1.
ZSTD:
The value of the autozero reference pressure as indicated by the reference
autozero device.
In
absolute measurement mode
, the autozero pressure is usually a pressure value
near atmospheric pressure and the ZSTD value can be supplied either: a) by
manual entry; b) automatically from a
DHI
RPM connected to the PPCK+ COM2 port.
In
gauge measurement mode
, the autozero pressure is always zero (atmospheric
pressure) which is supplied by definition when the RPT is vented to atmosphere.
2.
ZCURERR:
The difference between ZSTD and the RPT indication at the autozero
pressure
at some time after the calibration of the RPT
(ZCURERR = RPT w/out
ZOFFSET - ZSTD).
3.
ZNATERR:
The difference between ZSTD and the RPT indication at the autozero
pressure
just after the RPT has been calibrated
. This is referred to as the
natural
error
at the autozero pressure. Because no RPT is perfectly linear and ZSTD is not
perfectly accurate, the disagreement between the RPT reading and ZSTD at the
autozero pressure is unlikely to ever be zero.
4.
ZOFFSET:
ZCURERR corrected for ZNATERR, represents the drift of the RPT
relative to the reference (ZOFFSET = ZCURERR - ZNATERR). The current RPT
reading, adjusted by ZOFFSET, is the
autozeroed
RPT reading (e.g., the RPT
reading corrected for zero drift since it was calibrated). In
gauge
mode, ZOFFSET
also includes the value of atmospheric pressure that is being subtracted to arrive at
gauge pressure.
The AutoZ function manages the determination, storage and application of
ZNATERR and ZOFFSET individually for each PPCK+ range and measurement
mode.
AutoZ ON/OFF
The AutoZ function can be turned ON and OFF. When AutoZ is ON, the ZOFFSET is
always applied to the pressure measured by PPCK+. When AutoZ is OFF, ZOFFSET is
not applied (except for an absolute RPT in
gauge
mode for which ZOFFSET is the
current value of atmospheric pressure which is always subtracted to achieve
gauge pressure).
