3.4.4 Sensor Trim

EJX multivariable transmitter is factory

characterized. Factory characterization is the

process of comparing a known pressure input with

the output of each transmitter sensor module over

the entire pressure and temperature operating

range. During the characterization process, this

comparison information is stored in the transmitter

EEPROM. In operation, the transmitter uses this

factory-stored curve to produce a process variable

output (PV), in engineering units, dependent on the

pressure input.
The sensor trim procedure allows you to adjust

for local conditions, changing how the transmitter

calculates process variables. There are two ways

to trim the sensor: a zero trim and a full sensor trim.

A zero trim is a one-point adjustment typically used

to compensate for mounting position effects or

zero shifts caused by static pressure. A full sensor

trim is a two-point process, in which two accurate

end-point pressures are applied (equal to or greater

than the range values), and all output is linearized

between them.
Full Sensor Trim—Auto Trim and Manual Trim
Full sensor trim is carried out by performing

Auto,

Lower Pt followed by Auto, Upper Pt.

Also, you can manually perform the trimming

procedure with

Manual, Lower Pt and Manual,

Upper Pt.
The full sensor trim is a two-point adjustment,

and the lower point adjustment should always be

performed before the upper point adjustment in

order to maintain the pitch between the zero and

100% points within the calibration range.
In the manual method, the reference pressure

should also be applied to the transmitter at both

the lower and upper points. Without the reference

pressure,

Manual, Lower Pt and Manual, Upper

Pt may not represent the correct value for each

adjustment point.

(1) Auto Sensor Trim
Applying reference pressure of 0% and 100% of the

measurement range to the transmitter, adjust the

lower and upper points automatically.

(2) Manual Sensor Trim
Using the example below, follow the steps to

perform the full sensor trim by manually. The Pres
