F.5 Using the Calibration Wizard with Running

Programs

The LoggerNet Calibration Wizard provides an easy to use interface which

steps the user through the calibration process described above. By using

simple screens to gather information, the proper changes to the mode variable

and known measurements are performed automatically by the Wizard. The

user only needs to set the sensors to the known value(s), and provide a few

required inputs to the Wizard. This greatly simplifies the user’s interaction

with the sensors and datalogger program.

F.5.1 Calibration Wizard Basic Operation

When a program with one or more FieldCal instructions is running on a

datalogger, and RTDAQ is connected to that datalogger, you can select

Datalogger | Calibration Wizard from the Connect Screen’s menu to start the

Wizard. A list of measurements referenced from one or more FieldCal

instructions used within the program is then displayed to the user. The user

selects a measurement for calibration and moves forward by entering known

values, if necessary, and triggering calibration steps.

F.5.2 Using the Wizard to Perform Two-Point Multiplier and

Offset Calibrations

To perform a two-point calibration using the Wizard, run a program in your

datalogger utilizing a two-point multiplier/offset in the FieldCal instruction.

Connect to your datalogger and choose Calibration Wizard from the Connect

Screen’s Datalogger menu.

The Introduction screen for the Wizard will appear. Review the instructions

and press

Next.
