Section 7 | Calibration
High Calibration:
At the highest expected tide, Enter the High Tide Height, either read from calibrated Tide Board or staffing
gauge relative to a known datum.
Press the Get Reading button – TideMaster will sample pressure readings for 30s and record the high
height/pressure relationship.
The high and low readings can be collected in either order, and repeated if necessary. It is possible to
disconnect from the TideMaster and return later to carry out the second part of the calibration.
Once you are happy with the collected pressure/height readings the Generate button will calculate the
calibration factors and update the Gain and Offset parameters.
Clicking Next will then apply the calibration coefficients to the TideMaster and run a cal check. This will
display raw data in dBar, and calibrated data in Metres and Feet. The calibrated data should correspond to
the current tide height relative to your datum.
