AT265 User Manual 8 Commissioning and set-up 8.1 Calibration of the strain gauge measuring bridge DMS The device must be adapted to the DMS measuring bridge (calibrated) to consider its electri- cal characteristics. Notwithstanding the above, after heating up or electrical pre-stressing, the initial or offset value can be re-calibrated.
FELLER ENGINEERING AT265 User Manual GmbH 8.2 Calibration procedure To minimize temperature influences, calibration should be carried out only after 10 min after the commissioning of the module and the DMS sensor and at the usual operating tempera- ture. Before carrying out the calibration procedure, reasonable specifications for the DMS measur- ing bridge have to be entered in the parameters ...
