Calibrate Your Module 45
Offset Calibration
Inputs can be calibrated one at a time or all at once. To calibrate the offsets,
proceed as follows:
1. Apply power to the module for 20 minutes before calibrating.
2. Connect a precision millivolt source across each input channel. Set the
source to -320.00 mV for a gain of 1. Connect all (L) signal terminals
together and attach to the positive lead from the precision voltage
source. Connect all (-) signal terminals together and attach to the
negative lead.
1 1 gain = 2, input = 0.0 mV
1 2 gain = 4, input = -50 mV
1 3 gain = 8, input = -10.0 mV
1 4 gain = 16, input = -9 mV
1 5 gain = 32, input = 1.0 mV

2 0 gain = 1, input = 320 mV
2 gain = 2, input = 320 mV
2 gain = 4, input = 110 mV
2 gain = 8, input = 70 mV
2 gain = 16, input = 29 mV
2 gain = 32, input = 19 mV
