Coefficient Parameter
This parameter specifies the coefficients of the calibration equation being
used. Two coefficients (a, b) are specified for the linear equation (ax + b),
while three coefficients (a, b, c) are specified for a quadratic equation (ax
2
+ bx
+ c).
CALIBRATE PROBE Examples
Example 1: Calibrating the light probe to a reference value
The light probe can perform sampling at a distance of one to four meters
from a light source. The following example uses a light source with a bright-
ness of 800 at one meter and 200 at four meters, to produce calibration
values based on changes in brightness between those two points.

Calibration of probe for two-point data for
this example.
Input of reference value. At this time, light
probe should be in state that will be experi-
enced during sampling.
