 Probe (system) Calibration

 

– Performs the calibration of the RTD probe to 

the meter electronics.  This method can be performed when equipment to 
measure the probes R0 value is not available.  This should not be performed if 
the R0 value is manually entered into the R0 field. 

 
Existing Meter Calibration Settings 
 

Factory

 

– These settings are the default settings and can only be set at the factory. 

 

Active

 

– These settings are the calibration coefficients used in calculating temperature 

from the measured probe resistance.  These may be changed by the user via the “Ohm 
Meter Calibration” routine. 
 

Restore Factory Settings

 

– This button loads the “Active” settings registers with the 

current values displayed 

under the “Factory” settings.  This is used in the event the 

“Active” settings have been corrupted by invalid calibration.   

NOTE:

 Restoring the Factory settings will cause the current active settings to be 

deleted.  A new calibration will need to be perf

ormed if new “Active” settings need to be 

acquired.
