Transducer Scaling<br />

<strong>2704</strong> Controller<br />

19. Chapter 19 Transducer Scaling<br />

19.1. WHAT IS TRANSDUCER SCALING?<br />

Transducer scaling is a software function block which provides a method of offsetting the<br />

calibration of the <strong>controller</strong> input when compared to a known input source. Transducer<br />

scaling is often performed as a routine <strong>operation</strong> on a machine to take out system errors. In<br />

the case of a load cell, for example, it may be necessary to zero the scale when a load is<br />

removed.<br />

Transducer scaling can be applied to any input or derived input, i.e. the PV Input, Analogue<br />

Input or Modules 1, 3, 4, 5, or 6. In practice, however, it is unlikely that transducer scaling<br />

would be required on every input <strong>and</strong> so the <strong>2704</strong> <strong>controller</strong> includes three transducer<br />

calibration function blocks. These can be wired in configuration level to any three of the<br />

above inputs.<br />

Four types of calibration are explained in this chapter:-<br />

1. Shunt Calibration<br />

2. Load Cell Calibration<br />

3. Comparison Calibration<br />

4. Auto-tare<br />
