A-8 Appendix 4 535 User's Manual
Preparation for all Input Calibrations
Equipment for analog input calibration:
Precision 5-1/2 or 6-1/2 digit multimeter, e.g., Fluke 8842
®
or HP3478A
®
(a 4-1/2 digit meter will sacrifice accuracy)
Four small pieces of wire
Test leads with clips
#2 Phillips screwdriver
Additional equipment for thermocouple input:
Precision thermocouple calibrator, e.g., Micromite II
®
by Thermo Electric
Instruments
Special limits grade, Type T thermocouple wire
1. Disconnect power to the instrument.
2. Remove chassis from case.
3. On the Microcontroller Circuit Board, locate jumper locations marked PV1 and
2nd near the edge connector. Reposition both jumper connectors in the 2nd
location onto pins for V and TC as shown in Figure A4.3.
4. Connect hook up wires between terminals 31 and 32 and the multimeter as
shown in Figure A4.4.
Set the meter for DC volts.
5. Reinsert chassis into the case and apply power.
The 2nd and 3rd display should read CALIBRATE ANALOG IN.
6. Allow the controller to warm up for at least 30 minutes.
7. Press the ACK key to get to the first step/parameter.
The 2nd display should show CAL. VREF; the 3rd display should show a value
close to 5.0000.
8. The multimeter should read a value in the range 4.9750 - 5.0250.
Use the
and
(and FAST) keys on the controller until the display on the
controller matches the meter reading.
