Sensor trimming does not adapt the measuring range. It is used to adapt the sensor signal to
the linearization stored in the transmitter.
Procedure
1. Start
ß
2. Set the Sensor trimming parameter to the User trim settings setting.
ß
3. Using a water/oil bath or a furnace, bring the sensor connected to the transmitter to a known and stable temperature.
A temperature which is close to the set start of the measuring range is recommended.
ß
4. Enter the reference temperature for the value at the start of the measuring range for the Sensor trimming lower
value parameter. Based on the difference between the predefined reference temperature and the temperature actually
measured at the input, the transmitter internally calculates a correction factor which is now used to linearize the input
signal.
ß
5. Using a water/oil bath or furnace, bring the sensor connected to the transmitter to a known and stable temperature
close to the set end of the measuring range.
ß
6. Enter the reference temperature for the value at the end of the measuring range for the Sensor trimming upper
value parameter.
ß
7. End

Description Use this function to select the linearization method to be used for the connected sensor.
The original linearization can be restored by resetting this parameter to the Factory trim
settings option.
