Step 1: Turn on the system and allow it to run for 10 minutes before calibrating.
Step 2: Unload the machine or place the transducer at its zero point. If calibrating a hydraulic machine, float the piston before
taking any readings. Press <ENTER> to take the zero reading. The left side of the display will indicate PT1 has been read.
Step 3: Select the Engineering Units for calibration from the Data Acq Menu.
Step 4: Select Transducer from the Utils Menu.
Step 5: Enter the password. Contact ADMET technical support if you have lost the password.
Step 6: Select Transducer Type. Load, for example.
Step 7: Enter the load cell number. Use zero if your system has only one load cell.
NOTE: Smart Ducer ID will flash if available between these steps.
Step 8: Input the full scale range or the capacity of the machine. The range should be input in the currently active engineering units.
Step 9: Input the resolution (minimum load increment).
Step 10: Input the transducer serial number
Step 11: Calibrate to enter the measure mode or <ESC> to exit.
NOTE: If you decide to exit the Calibration Menu at this time the values entered for Full Scale and Resolution
will be saved.
Required Information Before Continuing Calibration
NOTE: The first calibration point must be at zero load.
It may be beneficial to take a few more calibration readings in areas of greatest inaccuracy. The number next to "Set PT No" on the
display will indicate how many calibration readings have been taken. As the calibration points are entered, write down the
corresponding load value. After all five calibration points have been taken, or the <STORE> key is pressed when using less than five
points, the EP2 automatically switches to engineering input mode. Input the load value corresponding to each calibration point reading
stored. The calibration points are stored sequentially. The first point is zero followed by the second, third and so forth. Once an
engineering unit value has been entered for each calibration point stored, the unit will automatically save the calibration.
