Calibrating the Sensor using Modbus Registers

Performing a Zero Calibration

1. Begin the flow of Zero gas (Nitrogen or Argon) at a rate of 1.5 SCFH.

2. Allow the readings from the sensor to stabilize.

3. Set Register #13 to 0 (equal to 0% H

2

).

4. Set Register 12 to 1.

Performing a Span Calibration

1. Begin the flow of Span gas (with a known %H

2

) at a rate of 1.5 SCFH.

2. Allow the readings from the sensor to stabilize.

3. Set Register #13 to the H

2

value in the span gas. Multiply the gas value by 100 before

entering the number (i.e. if the gas has 40.13%H

2

, enter a 4013 or if the gas has 9.97% H

2

enter a 997 into Register 13).

4. Set Register 12 to 2.

Changing the 4-20mA Assignments using Modbus Registers

Register 19 denotes the assignment for 4-20mA #1, and register 23 denotes the assignment of

4-20mA #2. The default value for #1 is %H

2

, and #2 is #DA. To change the assignment, enter a

number into either register according to the following list:
• 0 = %H

2

• 1 = %DA
• 2 = %NH

3

• 3 = %Kn
• 4 = External Source
