f. Connect indicator to 115 V ac power source. Turn power switch to on and allow
dial indicator calibrator to warm up for 15 minutes.
g. Dial indicator calibrator readout will indicate ENT...CL; press CL twice. The
indicator should indicate 0.0000000. The last three digits on the readout may
continually fluctuate depending on the environmental conditions and the warm-up time
allowed. The ACTL and INCH LEDs should be activated.
NOTE
If ACTL is not activated on the display then continue
pressing MOD until ACTL flashes on display, then press
ENT and CL. If any other indications are incorrect then see
page 7, paragraph 4.6, of the dial indicator calibrator manual
for proper programming.
NOTE
If the TI is graduated in millimeter steps rather than inches,
see page 7, paragraph 4.6.2, of the dial indicator calibrator
manual for proper programming.
h.
Fasten TI to dial
indicator calibrator, as
shown in
figure 3, using dial
indicator
mounting fixture supplied with TI and/or dial indicator calibrator.
NOTE
Ensure that the dial indicator calibrator contact surface
remains in contact with the transducers contact point and
the TI contact point is across the full range of the TI. This
will allow use of the full 1 inch range of the transducer. If it
is necessary to adjust the position of the transducer see note
below.
WARNING
Do not loosen any screws on the left side of the clamping
block. Loosening these screws will misalign the transducer
and cause unwanted errors. Be careful not to pinch the
cable.
NOTE
Adjustment procedure follows: Place the dial indicator
calibrator (without indicator) in a horizontal (back down)
position. Loosen the clamping-block locking screw (right-
hand side - fig. 3) one-quarter turn counter clockwise, using a
3/16 inch Allen wrench. Position transducer as necessary;
turn the clamping-block locking screw (fig. 3) one-quarter of a
turn clockwise, using a 3/16 inch Allen wrench.
