Calibrate Your Module
Use precision resistors -
for 383  and 100  calibration
Use precision voltage source –
for offset and gain calibration

To calibrate the module manually:
1. Apply a reference to the desired inputs.
2. Send a message to the module to indicate which inputs to read and what calibration step is
being performed (offset).
The module returns a response which echoes the message sent to the module. The module
stores this input data.
3. Apply a second reference signal to the module.
4. Send a second message to indicate which inputs to read and what calibration step is being
performed (gain).
The module computes the new calibration values for the inputs and returns a response
which echoes back the message sent to the module. If the calibration cannot be completed,
the module returns a fault message.
