Input Calibration
84 UDC2300 Controller Product Manual 12/00
Calibration Steps
Use the following steps when calibrating an input.
Step Action
1
Find the minimum and maximum range values for your PV input range from Table 8-1.
2
Disconnect the field wiring and find out what equipment you will need to calibrate.
3
Wire the calibrating device to your controller according to the set up wiring instructions
for your particular input (Subsection 8.4 or 8.6).
4
Follow the calibration procedure given for Input #1 or Input #2 (Subsection 8.5 or 8.7).
8.2  Minimum and Maximum Range Values
Select the Range Values
You should calibrate the controller for the minimum (0 %) and maximum (100 %) range
values of your particular controller. If you have a two input controller, calibrate each
input separately.
Select the Voltage or Resistance equivalent for 0 % and 100 % range values from Table
8-1. Use these values when calibrating your controller.
