4.10 Locus Calibration

As stated in section 3.2.7, the locus value for Teledyne SP-1 and

SP-2 sensors is approximately -17.0°C and should not be changed
unless a different manufacturer's sensor is used. If the locus is not -17°C,
use the following procedure to define the correct locus.


Procedure:

1. Magnetically activate the appropriate VERTICAL ▲/▼ arrow

key to reach the Locus Menu.

2. Magnetically activate RIGHT HORIZONTAL ► arrow key to

enter the calibrate mode. Observe the cursor move to the last
digit on the right.

3. Using the HORIZONTAL ◄► arrow keys, position the cursor

under the digit to be adjusted.

4. Increase or decrease the value by Magnetically activating the

appropriate VERTICAL ▲/▼ arrow key.

5. To file the locus value and exit the calibrate mode, Magnetically

activate the LEFT HORIZONTAL ◄ arrow key until the cursor
is all the way to the left.

4.11 Temperature Calibration

The Temperature Calibration screen is used to:

1. Adjust the temperature to coincide with measuring device
2. Toggle temperature units between °C and °F

4.11.1 Temperature Adjustment

When the process demands a tighter tolerance than ±3°C of the

temperature input, the LXT-280 allows adjustment, or trim, for
variations in the temperature compensation element. This adjustment
only compensates for deviations in the RTD input (as a sensor input
