5.6  Current Output Calibration 
Introduction 
Calibrate the recorder so that the output provides the required amount of current over the desired range. The 
recorder can provide an output current range of from 0 to 20 milliamperes and can be calibrated at  
4 mA for 0 % of output and 20 mA for 100 % of output, or at any other values between 0 mA and 20 mA. 
Equipment needed 
You will need a standard shop type milliammeter, with whatever accuracy is required, capable of measuring 
0 milliamps to 20 milliamps. 
Calibrator connections 
Table 5-10  Set Up Wiring Procedure for Current Proportional Output 
Step Action 
With the power off, door open, and the chart plate swung out; tag and disconnect field wiring 
from the terminals on terminal block TB5 on the printed circuit assembly for pen 1 or pen 2 as 
applicable (see Figure 5-6).  
Observing polarity, connect a milliammeter’s leads to TB5 terminals. 
Close the chart plate: apply power and allow the recorder to warm up 15 minutes before you 
calibrate.
