Sensor Offset

The Sensor Offset compensates for any known error on the sensor or channel to which the sensor is connected. The value is set in engineering units and is added to the data value.

For example, consider an application that uses the Current (mA) input type with the 4…20 mA range and scaling at 0…100%. If a sensor has an error and the channel consistently reports current signal values by 0.2 mA lower than the actual value, you must set Sensor Offset to 1.25%.

You must use the

O.Chxx.SensorOffset

tag to set the Sensor Offset. In the example above, the

O.Chxx.SensorOffset

tag = 1.25.
