Procedure for inserting a point by point correction
(The remote commands are given in brackets)
1. Prepare a set of standard gauge heights or a suitable calibration instrument.
2. Set the module to the following modes:
Maximum resolution (RES1)
Positive measuring direction (CHA+)
3. Place the probe on a reference point and set to zero (PRE). This point corresponds in principle
to the pre-run of the probe, i.e. about 0.8mm depending on the type of probe.
4. Place the probe on the first gauge height or standard value.
5. Wait for at least 3 seconds of stabilisation.
6. Read the value (?).
7 . Insert the first correction with the COR 1/ +/-x.yyyyy remote command.
The correction value to be inserted is equal to value of the standard gauge height less the
value read (taking account of the sign).
8. Repeat steps 4 - 7 for the other gauge heights or standard values.
9. After the last point has been inserted start the correction curve with COR ON and check that
it has started with CORO? or by powering up the module again.
The SYL -Calibre program makes it easy to insert point by point corrections (available on request).

4.5 Analogue module calibration (D30Xa only)
The D30Xa analog modules are calibrated in the factory with a P25 reference sensor. This fac-
tory calibration may not be modified. However, the user can modify the initial reference and the
range of each analogue output thanks to the remote commands AREF andAVMM or AVIN (see
the remote commands table). In this way the output voltage can be adapted to each monopolar
(0...10V) or bipolar (-10V...+10V) voltage and to each type of probe.
5. Tolerance functions
The module can be configured to measure toleranced values (see TOL remote commands). The
result of the toleranced measurement is added to the position measurement (remote command?)
in the form of a symbol.
= : the value is within the tolerances
< : The value is too small
> : The value is too large
