If the process is successful, the screen below will be displayed and the new calibration constant will be
stored in non-volatile memory of the PLC5 leaf cuvette. If the process is unsuccessful, the message
“Calibration: failed.” will be displayed and no changes made.
The Back button returns the user back to the Main Menu.
Please Note. Once the external PAR sensor is calibrated it can be used to calibrate the Light Unit used
with the PLC5 Leaf Cuvette. See Light Unit Calibration on page 112.
Light Unit Calibration
This function allows the user to calibrate the Light Unit (optional) using the removable, external PAR
sensor on the PLC5 leaf cuvette. The Light Unit Calibration uses the PLC5 PAR sensor as a reference
and steps the light unit through multiple light values from 0 to 3000 μmol m

. The calibration results
are stored in the PLC5 cuvette (not the light unit), so if the light unit is used with a different PLC5, the
Light Unit calibration should be redone. Note that PARi readings reported when the Light Unit is installed
on a PLC5 are reduced from the readings that would be reported on the PARe external sensor for the
same Light Unit setting by the attenuation of the PLC5 window glass which is 10%.
Before calibrating, confirm that:
