APPENDIX B - CREATING CALIBRATION
TABLE
A Calibration Table can be created two ways. It is recommended that the table be
created on a PC and loaded on the Legacy 6000. The second option is to create
the table using the Legacy 6000. A Calibration Table allows the operator to select
fromapre-denedsetofcalibrationnumbersthatarecommonlyused.Anexample
would be a granular application in which the gate height changes frequently, result-
ing in the change of the calibration number.
Creating a Calibration Table on a PC
Create a calibration table with a text editor (such
asNOTEPAD)andsavetheleas“CALS.TXT”
in a folder labeled “SYS” on the PC Card for the
Legacy 6000.
The calibration table is shown providing nominal calibration numbers for a granular
system that employs Gate Height ranging from 1 to 12 inches. A valid entry must
havethreeeldsseparatedbysquarebrackets.Withinthebrackettheremust be

zero and the units must relate to those selected during Channel Setup. For exam-
ple; if sensor units are lbs/ac and the Application is type ‘Granular’, the Calibration
# must be in pulses/cubic foot.
