OVERVIEW During a calibration, two calibration gases with known O2 concentrations and
one calibration gas with a known COe concentration are applied to the OCX
8800. Slope and constant values are calculated to determine if the OCX 8800
is correctly measuring net concentrations of O2 and combustibles in the
industrial process.
Before calibrating the OCX 8800, verify that the calibration gas parameters
are correct by setting the test gas values used when calibrating the unit. Refer
to Section 3, Configuration and Startup.
There are three calibration methods available to the OCX 8800; automatic,
operator-initiated automatic, and manual. Calibration commands and menus
can be accessed by HART/AMS or by the LOI.

FULLY AUTOMATIC

CALIBRATION

If the OCX 8800 is equipped with calibration solenoids, the unit can be
programmed to automatically calibrate without any operator action. Refer to
the following paragraphs for using the LOI or HART/AMS to set up the OCX
8800 for fully automatic calibration.
Autocalibration Setup using the LOI
Use the following procedure to set up the OCX 8800 for automatic calibration.
If necessary, use the LOI menu tree in Figure4-4 for reference. The unit must
be equipped with calibration solenoids to use automatic calibration.
NOTE
Automatic calibration is only available on units equipped with calibration
solenoids.
