Step 1 - Involves setting up the chamber for calibration. Fill
the chamber with double-distilled water to a normal level and
move the glass cannulas apart.
Press NEXT STEP.
Step 2 - Involves setting up the Calibration Kit for the actual
force calibration.
Place the calibration bridge and T-balance on the Pressure
Myograph allowing it to be pre heated. Make sure that the
tip of the T-balance pin is placed behind the glass cannula
fixation plate as illustrated in figure 3.1 and 3.2 for Pressure
Myograph - 114P or Pulsatile Pressure Myograph – 112PP,
respectively. Carefully move the calibration bridge until the
tip of the T-balance pin is placed freely and properly in place.
Press NEXT STEP.
Enter Force Calibration Menu by pressing Settings in the Main Menu and then press Force Calibration
Menu to begin the transducer calibration. The display will show the force calibration procedure. The
calibration procedure is listed in 6 individual steps and needs to be performed one at a time to calibrate
the system.
