SHUNT CALIBRATION: (Not available on all Transducers)
To Enable the Shunt Calibration – Short together the SHUNT CAL 1 and SHUNT CAL 2 Terminals or wires.
CALIBRATION:
Using the data from the CERTIFICATION OF CALIBRATION:
Full scale OUTPUT = CALIBRATION FACTOR + ZERO OUTPUT
ZERO OUTPUT = OUTPUT with zero pressure or load applied.
GROUNDING:
System is usually tied to Earth ground at the Power Supply Return.
