7.2 Restoring Factory Calibration
How to restore it
The factory calibration constants for all the input actuation types that can be used with the DR4500A
recorder are stored in its nonvolatile memory. Thus, you can quickly restore the “Factory Calibration” for a
given input actuation type by simply configuring the actuation type through the IN1 TYPE (or IN2 TYPE)
prompt to another type and then changing it back to the original type. See Table 7-1 for the procedure.
ATTENTION
This procedure applies only for factory-installed inputs. Any input that was field-installed must
be field calibrated.
Procedure
Table 7-1 lists the procedure for restoring factory calibration.
