Operating instructions - mobiSERVE
9.3 Calibration mode
The mobiSERVE offers the possibility to carry out a quick and precise electronic calibration by changing
the calibration factor ( K FACTOR).
Two procedures are possible to calibrate the unit:
■
■
Calibration during simulated operation, when fluid is discharged.
■
■
Direct calibration, whereby the calibration factor is changed.
When the TOTAL key is pressed for a longer time, the user gets access to the calibration process:
■
■
Display of the calibration factor currently being used.
■
■
Resetting the calibration factor of the manufacturer (FACTORY K FACTOR) after a calibration by the user.
■
■
Change of the calibration factor by means of one of the procedures mentioned above.
In the different phases of the calibration mode, the meanings of the messages on the display vary
regarding the partial and total amount issued.
In the calibrating mode, the counter cannot show normal data.
NOTE
The mobiSERVE is equipped with a non-volatile memory ensuring that the
saved calibration and total discharge amount data are retained even without
power supply. After the battery has been replaced, a new calibration is not
necessary.
9.4
Display of the current calibration factor and, if required, resetting the manufacturer's factor
When the TOTAL key is pressed in the standby mode, the calibration factor currently being used is
indicated.
Two cases may occur:
a) If a calibration has never been carried out yet, or if the manufacturer's value has been set after a
calibration, the following display will appear:
The message FACT (abbreviation for FACTORY) indicates that the calibration factor of the manufacturer
is used.
b) If calibrations have been effected by the user, the calibration value currently being used is shown
(0.998 in our example).
The message USER appears on the screen to indicate that the calibration factor used has been
entered by the user.
The flow chart opposite informs on the logical relationships between the various screens.
In this mode, the RESET key allows to change from the USER to the FACTORY FACTOR.
To confirm the calibration factor selection, shortly press the TOTAL key while USER or FACT is displayed.
After restart, the counter will use the calibration factor just confirmed.
