Press the MENUkey to exit without saving.After the calibration, turn off power of AM8010 and changeback the Mode Switch to Measurement Mode.7.2 System CalibrationSystem Calibration is based on the Instrument Calibration. It isto integrate a particular PRT sensor with AM8010 afterInstrument Calibration to form a temperature measurementsystem. This system is to be calibrated at certain temperaturepoints to calculate sensor’s coefficients based on AM8010’sreadings. These coefficients are then saved in AM8010 aftercalibration to achieve better measurement performance as asystem.The advantage of System Calibration is that it can achievehigher accuracy with lower cost because the sensor doesn’tneed additional calibrations before System Calibration.The following sections illustrate System Calibration procedurewith two types of sensors “IPRT” and “PRT”.7.2.1 Calibration with IPRT (high precision 100 ohm orindustrial 100 ohm Platinum ResistanceThermometer with α=0.00385)
