1.5 Calibrating the Analog Inputs
Analog inputs may be added to the Model GM868 flowmeter by installing an
Analog Inputs Option Card in one (or
more) of the six expansion slots. The option card contains two analog inputs, which are designated as A and B. Each
of the inputs, which may be either a 0/4-20 mA input or an RTD input, must be calibrated at both the zero-point and
full-scale values. After calibrating the inputs, their linearity should be tested.
Calibration of the analog inputs requires the use of a calibrated current source. If an independent calibrated current
source is not available, one of the
Slot 0
analog outputs may be used for the calibration. During the analog input
calibration, the
Slot 0
analog output will supply the low reference, high reference, 4 mA and 20 mA signals at the
appropriate times.
Note:
If a
Slot 0
analog output will be used to calibrate the analog inputs, make sure that the
Slot 0
analog output
calibration procedure has already been completed.
Connect the
Slot 0
analog output(s) (or an independent calibrated current source) to the analog input(s) on the
option card, as shown in Figure 3 below. Refer to the menu map in Figure 6 on page 15 as a guide.
