The following text pertains to other areas of the configuration window, including the spreadsheet columns.

Status Label

The Status label describes the current state of the sensor calibration spreadsheet. This label is located at the
top of the WBK16 Sensor Calibration window to the right of the strain gage diagram. The 3 possible states
of the Status label are as follows:

Configuring Channels. When the Status label displays “Status: Configuring Channels,” the user can

enter parameters for a calibration into the spreadsheet cells.

Calibrating Channel X-Y. If the user selects Calibrate Enabled Channels, either from the menu bar or

the toolbar, the Status label will read “Status: Calibrating Channel X-Y” where X and Y correspond
to the module number (X) and the channel number (Y) being calibrated.

Reading Channel X-Y. If the user selects Take a Single Reading either from the menu bar or the

toolbar, the Status label will read “Status: Reading Channel X-Y” where X and Y correspond to the
module number (X) and the channel number (Y) being read.
