Recommended calibration parameters
Note: Parameter steps for each range may be performed in any order, but all three parameter
steps for each range must be completed. For optimum calibration, use parameters within
recommended limits.
The maximum calibration
command parameter ranges are: 75% to 150%
of full scale for positive and negative full scale calibration points; ± zero cal-
ibration steps have ±50% of full scale for valid entry ranges. However, for
optim
um calibration, use calibration points within the ranges listed in Table
2-6 and Table 2-7. Note that each sense range requires three parameters:
zero, negative full scale, and positive full scale. Similarly, each source range
requires four parameters: two zero parameters, a positive full-scale
parameter, and a negative full-scale parameter.
