User calibration
9.2 User calibration
The E5AR/ER is calibrated before shipment from the factory and thus there is normally no need for the
user to calibrate the controller.
In the event that user calibration is necessary, use the calibration functions for temperature input, analog
input, and output that are provide in the controller.
However, note that OMRON cannot ensure the results of calibration by the user.
Also, calibration data is overwritten with the latest settings. The default calibration settings cannot be
returned to after user calibration.
● Input calibration The input type selected in the setting data is calibrated. Input types
consist of the following 20 types:
• Thermocouple : 13 types
• Analog input : 5 types
• Resistance temperature input sensor: 2 types
● Output calibration The output type selected in the setting data is calibrated. There is only
one output type that can be selected:
• Linear current output
● Registering
calibration data
The new calibration data for each item is temporarily registered. It can
be offcially registered as calibration data only when all items have
been calibrated to new values. So, be sure to temporarily register all
items when you calibrate the E5AR/ER.
When calibration data is registered, it is registered regardless of
whether or not the E5AR/ER has been calibrated by the user.
Prepare separate measuring devices and equipment for calibration.
For details on how to handle measuring devices and equipment, refer
to the respective instruction manuals.
