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.
