To calibrate the temperature on the Anderson AV-9000 chart recorder, follow these steps:
1. Ensure the jumpers on the Input Board are in the correct positions as shown in Table 11-3. 2. Press the calibration button until "IVx CAL CJC OR TC" appears on the upper display and "TC or CJC" on the lower display. 3. Select "CJC" by pressing the appropriate key until "CJC" blinks, then confirm the selection. 4. When "IVx CJC TC TYPE" appears on the upper display and a thermocouple type (e.g., "J") on the lower display, use the directional buttons to select the correct thermocouple type. 5. Connect the correct type of thermocouple to the input being calibrated. 6. Place a thermometer next to the thermocouple’s hot junction. 7. Press the calibration button again; the display will show "IVx CAL CJC" and "CJC READS: XX.X C". 8. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the display to match the thermometer reading.
This completes the CJC (Cold Junction Compensation) calibration.

1.4 SPECIFICATIONS DESCRIPTION The instrument is the first circular chart recorder with the ability to record trend data and print alphanu- meric in four colors. It uses unique “ring only” charts and has the ability to zone and scale trend data. These capabilities not only provide the best trend data readability, but also instant association with the corresponding scales.
Page 13
OPERATOR INTERFACE Beyond the configuration capability, the display, keypad, and prompting system provide superior real time data presentation. The display of each instrument value is configurable and three display formats are available, providing a range from fully detailed displays with 20 character tags, alarm indications, values, and units, to four process values displayed simultaneously. Separate keys are used to access the display, chart, and configuration related areas.

2.2 PREPARATION FOR WIRING This product is in conformity with the protection requirements of EU Council Directive 89/336EEC on the approxi- mation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility. The factory cannot accept responsibility for any failure to satisfy the protection requirements resulting from a non-recommended modification of this product.
Page 26
Use of Shielded Cable Shielded cable helps eliminate electrical noise being induced on the wires. All analog signals should be run with shielded cable. Connection lead length should be kept as short as possible, keeping the wires protected by the shielding.
Page 27
Sensor Placement (Thermocouple or RTD) Thermocouple lead resistance should not exceed 300 ohms. If this is exceeded, instrument accuracy could be affected. Two wire RTD's should be used only with lead lengths less than 10 feet. If the temperature probe is to be subjected to corrosive or abrasive conditions, it should be protected by the appropriate thermowell.
Page 28
2.3 WIRING CONNECTIONS - INPUTS All wiring connections are typically made to the instrument at the time of installation.

Questions and answers
How do I calibrate temperature on AV9000 chart recorder
To calibrate the temperature on the Anderson AV-9000 chart recorder, follow these steps:
1. Ensure the jumpers on the Input Board are in the correct positions as shown in Table 11-3.
2. Press the calibration button until "IVx CAL CJC OR TC" appears on the upper display and "TC or CJC" on the lower display.
3. Select "CJC" by pressing the appropriate key until "CJC" blinks, then confirm the selection.
4. When "IVx CJC TC TYPE" appears on the upper display and a thermocouple type (e.g., "J") on the lower display, use the directional buttons to select the correct thermocouple type.
5. Connect the correct type of thermocouple to the input being calibrated.
6. Place a thermometer next to the thermocouple’s hot junction.
7. Press the calibration button again; the display will show "IVx CAL CJC" and "CJC READS: XX.X C".
8. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the display to match the thermometer reading.
This completes the CJC (Cold Junction Compensation) calibration.
