Calibration; Calibration/Validation Overview - Siemens SIPROCESS GA700 Quick Start Manual

Commissioning
7.7 Commissioning the device
Note
Setpoints for zero/span gas beyond the min./max. limits
After changing the start-of-scale value and/or the end-of-scale value, the setpoints for
zero/span gas may be outside the configured limits. The "[150] - Parameter value invalid"
message appears:
• Make sure that the measuring range is active.
• Adjust the setpoints to the changed measuring range.
4. Enable/disable measuring range:
"Use measuring range" parameter field.
Note
Using measuring ranges in other device functions/menus
Other device functions or menus can only access measuring ranges activated in this
menu. Inactive measuring ranges are not displayed for selection in other device
functions/menus. This means they can no longer be used, for example, in autoranging or
in calibrations.
5. Set additional measuring ranges/parameters, e.g., → Setting Autoranging (Page 94).
7.7.5.1

Calibration/validation overview

Introduction
This menu enables you to make simple calibrations or validations, for example, as part of
initial commissioning. This means the offered range of functions is very limited. Automation
functions, such as the use of the calibration pool, cannot be activated using this menu.
"Factory calibrations" also are not part of the functions included in the Quick Start menu.
You can find detailed information on how to fully access all possibilities of the
calibration/validation functions of the device in the section → [2.08] Settings > Calibrations.
Difference between calibration/validation

Calibration

In a calibration, the device is adapted to its measurement task(s). For the actual value to be
equal to the setpoint, the device changes one or more calibration factors during calibration.
