Go to "new calibration" and set calibrator as above for samples 1 to 20. Once this is
entered, go to "add analyses" and key in the percent values for samples 1 to 20. Once this is
entered, go to "regression". The output will then be calibrated to give a 0-100% readout for
a capacitance of 170 to 30 pf. This will cover a range of approximately 50 to 100 brix. K1 and
K2 can then be set in the process to adjust zero and span for the 4-20 ma signal to cover the
required range. K1 is the indicated value required for 4 ma (zero) and K2 the value required
for 20mA output.
By adjusting these switches F1 and F2 values as close to the recorded values for high and
low brix should be achieved, and these settings recorded.
These can then be used to simulate low and high brix for the two point calibration.
The calculation method is described in the C2C manual.
