7.5.2 Calibration Equation
The frequency output of the DMM600 is converted to water content using a
calibration equation. The response of the DMM600 to changing water content
is best described with a quadratic calibration equation. A factory calibration is
part of the DMM600 operating system and will always be displayed.
The factory calibration to convert frequency (MHz) to volumetric water
content is:
VolumetricWater Content freq freq = + − 5 288 5 905 0142 2 . . * . *
User derived calibrations are easily loaded to the DMM600 using PCDMM.
The coefficients from the calibrations are entered into the appropriate box then
Send Calibration button is used to transfer the values to the DMM600.
