Before using an external sensor, it must be specifically
calibrated for your KT-9. Every external sensor is shipped with
• a diskette that contains specific calibration data for the
particular sensor and a copy of the calibration program
CALIB
• a calibration standard sample
• a serial port connector cable (Part no. 97945).
The calibration procedure is as follows:
1
Connect the supplied cable (Part no. 97945) to the KT-9
computer port located on the bottom panel (covering the
battery compartment).
2
Connect the other end of the cable to the
COM
1:
serial port
of your computer. Please note that the cable has a DB-9
connector. If your computer has a 25-pin port, you will
either need a DB-9 to DB-25 adaptor or ask
EXPLORANIUM
for a special DB-25 version of the connector cable.
3
Run the
CALIB
program on your computer. A typical session
follows and is shown in Figure 15:

CONNECT KT-9 TO COM1 OF PC-COMPUTER
SWITCH KT-9 ON
SELECT MEASURING MODE FOR CALIBRATION - press ENTER
SERIAL NUMBER: 4510
TYPE COMMAND: ’G’ -> Get old calibration from KT-9
’M’ -> Measurement of standard
’S’ -> Save new calibration in KT-9
’N’ -> New standard for calibration
’E’ -> Exit program & DISABLE COM1 output ?
