Zero-point Calibration

To calculate the concentration offset factor for a filter (during a

zero-point calibration) it is necessary to have a humidity gain

factor for the filter, and vice versa. If a humidity gain factor is not

stored in each of the filter banks, which are active during a zero-

point calibration, then it is necessary to perform a combined zero-

point and humidity-interference calibration task. The set-up of this

combined task is discussed in

section 12.11

.

If it is only a newly-installed optical filter which needs to be

calibrated, then the same procedure used for an individual filter must

be used, see

section 12.5.1

. In this way you can protect your original

concentration offset factors.
