Calibration of RTD Scanning Cards
Note:
Prior to each calibration session, disable calibration protection by setting the rear panel DIP
microswitch 9 to the up (
1 ) position. Then enable Calibration Mode via the Enter Calibration
Mode (
K
) command with a valid password. If the default calibration password has not been
changed, enter
K12345
.
Note: At the end of each calibration session, disable Calibration Mode with the End Calibration
Mode (
E
) command. Then re-enable calibration protection by resetting DIP microswitch 9 to
the down ( 0 ) position.
To Calibrate an RTD Card for Offset
1. Connect a Copper Short to Channel 1 (across R1-, S1-, S1+, R1+) on the scanning card being
calibrated. Use standard copper hookup wire.
Do not use thermocouple wire. Slide the scanning
card into the previously-calibrated master chassis.
2. Power up the unit and wait at least one hour before continuing.
3. Send the Calibrate Channel Offset (
H
) command
Hchan
– where
chan
refers to the first channel
number on the scanning card being calibrated (refer to the previous table for valid offset channel
numbers) – and wait for the command to complete. The
TRIGGER LED indicator will flash for a
few seconds.
4. Monitor the Calibration Status Register (
CSR
) to ensure that the Calibrate Channel Offset (
H
)
command completed without error. Refer to the User Status (
U
) command
U2
to monitor and
decode the Calibration Status Register (
CSR
).
To Calibrate an RTD Card for Gain
CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION
Ensure that the RTD scanning card has been calibrated for offset. If not, follow
the RTD card offset calibration procedure as described in the previous text.
1. Connect a precision 3-wire or 4-wire resistance source of
xxx.xx
ohms to Channel 1 on the
scanning card being calibrated. Slide the scanning card into the previously-calibrated master
chassis.
2. Power up the unit and wait at least one hour before continuing.
3. Enter the Set RTD Gain Calibration Reference (
*G
) command
*Ggain
where
gain
is the
appropriate resistance value
nnn.nn
in ohms.
4. Send the following Calibrate Channel Gain (
G
) command
Gchan,type
– where
chan
refers to
the first channel number on the scanning card being calibrated (refer to the previous table for valid
gain channel numbers):
•
3-Wire RTD:
Gchan,16
•
4-Wire RTD:
Gchan,17
Wait for the command to complete. The TRIGGER LED indicator will flash for a few seconds.
5. Monitor the Calibration Status Register (
CSR
) to ensure that the Calibrate Channel Gain (
G
)
command completed without error. Refer to the User Status (
U
) command
U2
to monitor and
decode the Calibration Status Register (
CSR
).
