The calibration of the set value is used to minimize the amount of correction to
the set point based on sense measurement that is necessary to achieve the
desired set point at the MFC. This is accomplished by adjusting the set point
value using an adder and a multiplier (see Section 5.2.1). When in the set view
scree
n in the MFC calibration function, the set value displayed is the value
actually output by MFC-CB after correction iterations based on the sense
line readings. Thus, the difference between the set displayed and the set
entered is the magnitude of the correction. Use the set adder and multiplier to
minimize this value.
In normal MFC-CB operation, the actual set value may be modified by a K factor
and/or adjustment factors in addition to the calibration coefficients (see
Section 7.1). When in the set view screen of the MFC calibration function, K
factors an
d adjustment factors are deactivated.
OPERATION
To view the device channel set value after sense line based corrections and the
current set adder (A) and multiplier (M), press [SPECIAL], <4cal>, select the
desired device channel, press <3set>, select voltage or current, press <1view>.
The display is:
1. Set value after sense line based corrections
with the Set adder and multiplier applied (V
or mA).
2. Indication that this is a Set display.
3. Device channel indicator.
4. Current value of the multiplier applied to the
Set value.
5. Current value of the adder (V or mA) applied
to the Set value.
While in the view screen, the [SET MFC] key is active so that set point values
can be changed. The set value displayed is the actual set value after sense line
based corrections (see PRINCIPLE directly above).
To adjust the value of the adder (A) and/or multiplier (M), press [ESCAPE] to
return to the view/cal screen, and then press <2cal> to access a screen in which
the values of A and M can be edited. After entering the edited values, press
[ESCAPE] and return to <1view> to view the set values with the edited
calibration coefficients applied.
See Section 5.2.1 for an explanation of adders and multipliers and their use in
adjusting electrical settings and readings.
