1.2 Calibration
1.2.1 Calibration Data Storage
Calibration data, including calibration offsets, and when the calibration was performed
and by whom, are stored in the Logger in non-volatile memory. The data remains intact
even if the battery is exchanged.
1.2.2 Verifying Calibration
The Kaye RF ValProbe software allows you to verify Logger calibration at one or two
setpoints. For Humidity/Temperature Loggers, each sensor type must be verified
independently. You may want to verify that the Loggers are within their specification
before running a study; however, you do not need to recalibrate them. Since the RF
ValProbe is a self-contained instrument, the sensor and instrument errors are accounted for
during factory calibration.
The following section provides an overview of verifying Logger calibration. The online
Help that comes with the Kaye RF ValProbe software provides step-by-step instructions
on calibration procedures.
Note: In the RF ValProbe software, you can select either manual or automatic
calibration verification. If you select automatic calibration verification, you will
not need to enter stability or deviation criteria; however, you will still need to
connect your computer to a Kaye IRTD temperature probe and to a temperature
bath via the Kaye Calibration Interface (included with the IRTD). You will also
need to enter setpoints, and to click the Start Calibration button.
