Calibrating the K-Box

PreviousReprogramming the K-BoxNextErasing the Calibration

Last updated 11 months ago

To improve the accuracy, one can calibrate the K-Box measurements. The software allows the user to cycle through several measurement points. Once done committing, the calibration applies to the K-Box, improving the measurement accuracy.

Pressing the Load Button Loads the calibration contained in the K-Box and displays them on the screen.

Allows the user to set the noise level and tolerance.

Alternatively, press the start button and attach the appropriate voltages/thermocouple test signals to the inputs of the K-Box to cycle through the test points to calibrate the K-Box for maximum accuracy:

Select the Voltage of the Calibration Point you wish to calibrate, and make these points appropriate to the range of inputs you expect. For example, if you expect input signals to be between 0V and +38V, Influx recommends you calibrate the +40V and OV calibration points for that channel:

Select the Channel of the Calibration Point you wish to calibrate by either clicking the Radio Button of the channel

Or, by clicking on the point, you wish to calibrate in the field to the right.

Adjust the input voltage from the calibrated test equipment that you are using to match the voltage for the test point:

If the input voltage is stable and correct, the calibration of the channel will be updated as follows:

If it is not, you will receive a warning:

Repeat the steps above until you have calibrated all the calibration points.

Once you have configured the K-Box as desired, click Commit to send the configuration to the K-Box. If you make a mistake and wish to clear the calibration, use the Clear button.

Doing this will save the calibration to the K-Box and create a report detailing the calibration:
