5.2 Calibrating the Probes

For newly-purchased moisture.IQ systems, GE has already entered the required calibration data for all
purchased moisture and oxygen sensors. However, you should verify this data before startup. You will also
need to enter new calibration data if you install a probe from your stock or attach a transmitter to the auxiliary
inputs.
Note: For hygrometry, you need to enter calibration data only for M Series probes. It is not necessary to enter
calibration data for the Moisture Image Series Probe unless you send the probe back to GE for calibration
without its electronics module. If this is the case, enter the calibration data for the re-calibrated probe as
described in this section. The moisture.IQ will automatically download the new calibration data into the
Moisture Image Series Probe electronics module.

5.2.1 Entering Calibration Data Automatically

For moisture and oxygen probes included with the analyzer, GE pre-installs the corresponding calibration data
files. To enter this calibration data, proceed as follows:
1. On the Probe Calibration screen, select the Channel Number where a probe requiring calibration is
attached. Then, tap the FIND button to display a list of all included probes by serial number.
2. Scroll the list to find and select the data file matching the probe to be calibrated, and tap the Save
button. The calibration data for that probe will be automatically entered into the calibration table.
3. Tap the Check button to use the new data.

5.2.2 Entering Calibration Data Manually

Be sure you have the Calibration Data Sheets that are supplied with each GE probe. Each Calibration Data Sheet
consists of a list of data points that must be entered or verified. Each Calibration Data Sheet lists the
corresponding probe serial number, as well as the preassigned channel number. Calibration Data Sheets are
usually packed inside the case of the corresponding probe.
To enter your calibration data, refer to the menu map in Figure 78 on page 111 and complete the following
steps:
1. From the Configuration Menu, tap the Probe Calibration button to open a Probe Calibration screen
similar to Figure 58 on page 67 . Note that the serial number of the corresponding probe is listed at the
top of the screen for reference.
