Calibrate the ControlLogix Analog I/O Modules
The ControlLogix® analog I/O modules are calibrated during the manufacturing
process. Each module’s accuracy remains high throughout its lifespan.
You must add the module to your Studio 5000 Logix Designer® application
project, as described in Chapter 7, before you can calibrate it.
You calibrate analog I/O modules on a channel-by-channel basis or with the
channels grouped together.
If you choose to calibrate your module, we recommend the following:
• Calibrate all channels on your module each time you calibrate.
This maintains consistent calibration readings and improves module
accuracy.
• Use an extra 1756-TBCH RTB to calibrate your module.

You are not required to calibrate the module at any point in its lifespan.
This chapter describes the tasks that are associated with module calibration if
you choose to calibrate the module at any point in their lifespan.
