The following procedure determines zero offset of the pressure transducer, water
temperature, and barometric pressure readings. Use the external keyboard /
display or support software numeric monitor to change variable values as directed.

1. Send CRBasic example FieldCal() Zero Basis Demo Program (p. 158) to the
CR800.
2. To simulate the pressure transducer in zero conditions:
• Digits_Measured is set to 8746 automatically
• Temp_Measured is set to 21.4 automatically
• BP_Measured to 991
3. To simulate the calibration, change the value in variable CalMode to 1 to start
calibration. When CalMode increments to 6, zero calibrations are complete.
Calibrated offsets will equal 8746 digits, 21.5 C°, and 991 mb.
