CAL_DRIFTC
Direction output
Binding
None
Type
5-element floating point array
Value range
Same as analyzer calibration gas, ±5% or so. A calibration failure is indicated by a
very large negative number of about 9 E-12 or so, much less than zero.
Units PPM
Description
SCAL only; shows the appropriate analyzer reading just prior to calibration on the
various gas cycles.
Analyzer 3's reading just prior to the zero calibration.
Analyzer 3's reading just prior to the span gas 1 calibration.
Analyzer 3s reading just prior to the span gas 2 calibration.
Analyzer 3's reading just prior to the span gas 3 calibration.
Analyzer 3's reading just prior to the span gas 4 calibration.
Usage
Allows a DAS to track the calibration drift of the analyzer. These values are
updated after the calibration cycle is complete. If the cycle does hot complete, the
incomplete values will be represented by the very large negative number.
