- Adjustment Using a Hand-Held Meter on page 68. - Adjustment Using a Computer on page 69. If adjustment is not enough to restore the measurement accuracy of the transmitter, you can also replace the measurement modules. See section Repair Maintenance on page 70. VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 63...
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________ Notes for CO Adjustment 1-point CO adjustment affects either offset or gain, depending on the gas concentration. 1-point adjustment below 700 ppm affects the measurement offset, above 700 ppm it affects the gain. 2-point adjustment will adjust both offset and gain. Choose the adjustment points as follows: - For first point, use as low concentration as possible.
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________ When adjusting the transmitter, you can also correct your reference concentration (for example, the value on the gas cylinder label) according to the graph below. 1402-025 Figure 25 Effect of Pressure on CO Reading Notes for T Adjustment Temperature adjustment is always a simple 1-point offset correction.
To commit the change, stop turning the trimmer and wait. 1310-092 Figure 27 Adjustment Screen If you have adjusted the CO measurement, wait for three minutes for the reading to stabilize. Verify the adjusted measurement from measurement screen. VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 67...
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________ Adjustment Using a Hand-Held Meter GMW90 transmitters can be adjusted using Vaisala hand-held meters HM70 (for humidity and temperature) and GM70 (for carbon dioxide and temperature). Connect the GMW90 series transmitter to the MI70 indicator using the connection cable (Vaisala order code 219980). MI70 indicator is the hand-held display device that is included with HM70 and GM70.

User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________ Repair Maintenance If you cannot restore the measurement accuracy of the transmitter by calibration and adjustment, you can replace the measurement modules inside the transmitter. Measurement modules are the small component boards that are connected to the main transmitter component board. See Figure 4 on page 17.
Push down on the module to secure the connector. Reconnect the transmitter to the mounting base. Verify that there are no errors when the transmitter starts up. If there are, see section Error Messages on page 74. VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 71...
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________ Replacing the HTM10 Module CAUTION Handle the HTM10 module carefully. When reinstalling the transmitter body to the mounting base, avoid touching the module or the ® HUMICAP sensor. To replace the module: Disconnect the transmitter body from the mounting base. With your fingers, push apart the two plastic holders that hold the module.
