18. ADJUSTMENT

18.1 Adjustment of Measured Values

Adjustment

Adjustment comprises four kinds shown below. (1), (3) and (4) have already been adjusted. However, it is recommended for maintaining the measuring and printing accuracy to adjust them once a year.

1 Adjustment of measured values

It is recommended for maintaining measuring and printing accuracy to adjust them once a year.

(1)Execute the adjustment for each channel.

(2)Execute the adjustment under the reference condition. (See the right table.)

2) Connection

Connections depend upon the input types. See the next page.

3)Before starting adjustment

(1)After the connection, mount the terminal board cover and turn on the power supply.

(2)Before starting adjustments, warm up your recorder for at least 30 minutes until it becomes stable. (It is recommended to warm it up for at least one hour if possible.)

Remarks Adjustments

Check and adjustments of the measured values need meticulous work in addition to the standard tools and reference conditions.

If you need checks or adjustments of the measured values, please consult your nearest CHINO’s agent.
