MTS Series 793 - Manual (Page 158)

Note:
The system software supports non symmetrical full scales. This means you do not have to center
the range around zero, but the value 0.0 must be in the range. For example, you can set the
full-scale maximum to +10 cm and the full-scale minimum to -3 cm.
3. Enter any additional Calibration Parameters using the values from the calibration report.
4. Define any additional ranges (if applicable).
Click Add to add another range to the calibration file. Up to ten ranges can be included in a calibration file.
Repeat the range definition procedure for each range you want to calibrate.
5. Save the sensor file.
How to Set mV/V Pos Tension or mV/V Pos Comp Calibration Settings
For both full-range and multi-range conditioners, mV/V Pos Tension or mV/V Pos Comp can be selected for
range definition.
1. In the Cal Type list, click mV/V Pos Tension.
2. Under Range Definition, define a range.
By default Range 1 is entered. Highlight the name Range 1 and change it to something meaningful.
3. Specify the Fullscale Min/Max values of the range.
Select the units for the range, and then enter the values for the upper and lower ranges.
