Calibration

All PointScan/200 Series analog I/O logic modules are factory calibrated over all supported ranges using a

regularly maintained set of standards. Factory calibration data is stored in permanent memory in the logic

module, and cannot be altered. User recalibration may be performed, but is necessary only if inaccuracy in

your field device is observed, or if any of the 100 ohm input shunts are replaced with low tolerance

resistors.

Each analog channel has span and offset calibration settings. Span is the "range" or "gain" of the channel.

Offset is the "zero" setting. Each reported analog I/O value is the product of the factory calibration value

times the user calibration value. The user calibration value is defined as:

(user span value * raw value) + user offset

The user span is a unity value (1) by default. The user offset is zero by default.

Note: All factory and user calibrations are performed in software. There are no adjustment

potentiometers inside the logic modules.

User calibrations are performed using the Remote IO Toolkit utility. Refer to the Remote IO Toolkit on-

line help system for information on calibrating PointScan/200 Series analog I/O.
