Calibration

Calibration is an iterative process alternating between the “MIN” and
“MAX”

because offset adjustments affect the gain and gain

adjustments affect the offset.

Enter the Analog Output Test mode.

Select the “MIN” mode and adjust the Offset potentiometer (R1) on

the Analog Output PCB assembly to get 0.0000 mA(0.0000V).

Select the “MAX” mode and adjust the Gain potentiometer (R3) to get

20.000mA(5.0000V).

Repeat steps 1 and 2 until adjustments are not needed.
