5.2.3.3 CALIB
CAUTION: Calibration parameters must be correct for the instrument to
function properly.
The CALIB (CALIBRATION) menu allows the user access to the calibration param-
eters for the instrument. Access to the heat source and readout calibration parameters
is protected by a password. Calibration parameters are programmed at the factory
when the instrument is calibrated. These parameters may be adjusted to improve the
accuracy of the instrument by qualied personnel.
CAUTION: DO NOT change the values of the control parameters from the
factory set values unless you are recalibrating the instrument. The correct
setting of these parameters is important to the safe and proper operation of the
block.
The parameters in the CALIB menu are set at the factory and must not be altered un-
less recalibrating the instrument. Recalibration of the instrument should be performed
by trained, knowledgeable personnel. The correct values are important to the accuracy
and proper and safe operation of the block. Access to these parameters is protected by
a password. In the event that the calibration parameters need to be reentered into the
instrument, these constants and their settings are listed in the Report of Calibration
shipped with the instrument.
5.2.3.3.1 CAL POINTS
The CAL POINTS (CALIBRATION POINTS SETUP) menu contains the heat source
calibration constants, TEMP CALPT 1, TEMP CALPT 2, and TEMP CALTPT 3. Use
the arrow keys to enter the set-point for each calibration point and press “Enter” to
accept the entry. The calibration points should be selected applicable to model with a
low, mid-range, and high set-point.
5.2.3.3.1.1 TEMP 1
The TEMP 1 parameter is the offset in °C for the heat source accuracy at the 1st cali-
bration point.
5.2.3.3.1.2 TEMP 2
The TEMP 2 parameter is the offset in °C for the heat source accuracy at the 2nd
calibration point.
5.2.3.3.1.3 TEMP 3
The TEMP 3 parameter is the offset in °C for the heat source accuracy at the 3rd cali-
bration point.
