4.6.4 Changing the Configuration File
All correction factors and range settings listed above are the default values that
can be changed by editing the configuration file. In order to change correction
factor settings, the user will need the step_4 - 9DP-1 - correction factor.cfg,
which is available through Ludlum Measurements. To change the correction
factor settings, open this file in Notepad (or any text editor that doesn't add
hidden characters):
INS:FNC:004:HEA:SET:TYP:23 Sets function type DO NOT CHANGE
INS:FNC:004:HEA:SET:NAM:Corr. Factor Sets function name on display
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R00:0 DO NOT CHANGE (default is auto-ranging)
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F00:1.000 DO NOT CHANGE (default CF=1.000)
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R01:5 Sets Range 5 for correction factor 1
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F01:1.000 Correction factor 1 is 1.000
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R02:5 Sets Range 5 with correction factor 2
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F02:1.429 Correction factor 2 is 1.429
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R03:0 Sets Range for correction factor 3 (0=auto-ranging)
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F03:1.000 Correction factor 3 is 1.000
For example: Assume that the Model 9DP-1 user wanted three different
correction factors to be applied to three different ranges. The first correction of
0.750 is used with range 2 (0-50 mR/hr), the second correction of 1.225 is used
with range 4 (0-5 R/hr), and the third correction of 1.429 is used with range 5 (0-
50 R/hr). The new configuration file should read as follows:
INS:FNC:004:HEA:SET:TYP:23
INS:FNC:004:HEA:SET:NAM:Corr. Factor
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R00:0
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F00:1.000
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R01:2
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F01:0.750
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R02:4
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F02:1.225
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:R03:5
INS:FNC:004:TYP:023:SET:F03:1.429
