Resistance
You can view the value of the
resistance that the SmartLink-P
reads on a specific terminal by
clicking on the sensible area of the
terminal concerned.
Calibration
The button used to calibrate an
input and reduce the effect of loss
of component characteristics.
a
Work carefully through the
following steps:
1.
Connect a calibration
resistor (10K, 12K or 15K
as required, between
IN&OUT terminal
concerned and ground
(terminal 4).
2.
Connect the SmartLink-P to
a computer.
3.
Select the button in the
Resistance
column: the
box will show the value
read on the terminal.
4.
If the value differs greatly
from the value of the
resistor connected to the
terminal, proceed with the
calibration. If the values
are very similar, calibration
will not be necessary.
5.
Otherwise, select
Calibrate
: answer
YES
to
the confirm request.
6.
Click on the value of the
resistor used then select
Ok
.
SmartLink-P compares the
selected value and the
current value on the input.
It will indicate any notable
difference and request
confirmation to continue.
7.
Wait 3-4 seconds: a
calibration done message
appears. Select the button
in the
Resistance
column
to verify the value on the
terminal after calibration.
Send the parameters to
SmartLink-P before
switching off. This is the
only way to make the
calibration definite!
Calibration is
recommended on systems
using dated components,
in order to allow signals
coming from these
components to have
values suitable to detect
exceeded balance
thresholds and subsequent
status changes.
You can use the View
button in the
Resistance
column at
any time to view the value
of the resistance on a
specific terminal. The
'
Terminal open!'
string
indicates a value of over
30K.
