6.4 A/D Calibration
Since the ACL-8111 provides versatile A/D input ranges, the calibration on 
one A/D range may cause a small offset on other ranges. It is suggested that 
you calibrate the A/D range which you need best accuracy. 
The procedures of calibration are as follows:
1. Set the analog input range as: +/- 5V, i.e. the gain = 1.
2. Short the A/D channel 0 (pin 1 of CN1) to ground (GND), and connect
the TP1 (+) and TP2 (-) with your DVM. Trim the variable resister VR5 to 
obtain 0 reading in the DVM. 
3. Applied a +5V input signal to A/D channel 0, and trim the VR4 to obtain
reading between 4094~4095.
4. Applied a +0V input signal to A/D channel 0, and trim the VR3 to obtain
reading flickers between 2048~2049.
5. Repeat step 2 and step 3, adjust VR3 and VR4.
