3.4.1 Normal Operation
In normal operation, the display tracks the current status of the sensor and gas concentration and appears as:
“0.00 % CO2”. The mA current output corresponds to the monitoring level and range of 0-100% FS = 4-20 mA.
3.4.2 Calibration Mode
Calibration mode allows for sensor zero and span adjustments.
“1-ZERO 2-SPAN”
3.4.2.1 Zero Adjustment
Zero is set in ambient air with no CO2 gas present or with zero gas applied to the sensor.
“AUTO ZERO”
3.4.2.2 Span Adjustment
Unless otherwise specif ied, span adjustment is performed at 50% of full-scale range of CO2.
“AUTO SPAN”
