Transducers

Transducer gain must be calibrated before mastering the transducer
resolution. The instructions for gain calibration are provided later in this
chapter. After transducer gain is calibrated, LVDT and HBT transducer
resolution is determined by performing a full calibration using the
Master function. Refer to "Calibrating channels using the Master
function" on page 43.
