OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES
A. Entering Sensor Cap Coefficients into the 9031M
Connect the probe/cable assembly to the instrument and turn the
instrument on. Locate the Calibration Code Label at the top of the
instruction sheet and note the six numbers which are listed as K1
through K5 and KC. These six numbers contain the calibration code
for this particular sensor cap. Follow these instructions to enter the
new calibration coefficients into your instrument:
1.
Press and hold the
“CAP”
key for 3 seconds.
2. The instrument will prompt for K1 and show 8 alpha/numeric
values with the first value blinking.
3. Use the
“Up”
and
“Down”
keys to adjust the first value to
match the first value of the new cap’s K1. Press the
“Enter”
key to accept.
4. Continue using the
“Up”
and
“Down”
keys to adjust all 8
alpha/ numeric values for K1 pressing the
“ENTER”
key to
confirm each entry.
5. After confirming the last value for K1, the instrument will prompt
you for K2. Follow the instructions in step 3 and 4 to enter and
confirm the value for K2. Continue with K3, K4 and K5.
6. After confirming K5, the 9031M will prompt you for KC. KC has
two values. Follow the instructions in step 3 and 4 to enter the
coefficients. After confirming KC, the instrument will return to
the measurement screen.
7. After entering the Sensor Cap Coefficients, perform a 1-point or
2-point calibration as described in the Calibration Section.
8. Press and hold the
“CAP”
key for 3 seconds at any time to exit
and cancel the cap coefficient update.
If errors are made in entering the Sensor Cap Coefficients, the
instrument will block the update and an error message will appear
on the display and the instrument will return to the K1 entry screen.
If you see this error message, re-enter the coefficients and check
them carefully for correct transcription from the Calibration
Coefficient Label.
