6.8 Specifying Calibration Parameters
Figure 44: Calibration Parameters Screen
The Kaye Validator AVS provides both sensor calibration and calibration verification.
Before performing a qualification study, calibrate the temperature sensors to correct raw
temperature readings to a NIST-traceable temperature standard. During calibration the Kaye
Validator AVS automatically corrects raw temperature sensor readings to a NIST-traceable
temperature standard to compensate for any errors inherent in sensor materials, and stores
these offsets in the associated SIMs. You can specify a two-point calibration, or a two-point
calibration with one check point.
Sensors that do not meet the calibration test criteria for uncalibrated sensors are marked as
failed and are not calibrated. A Calibration signature will be matched before running a
Qualification, Calibration or Verification process. Calibration and Verification
Temperatures, chosen Set points, Stability criteria and Deviation criteria together constitute
Calibration Signature.
