Calibration Info Screen

This screen displays information about the loaded calibration.

Serial Number

The serial number of the F/T sensor.

Calibration Date

The date the F/T sensor was last calibrated

Calibration Type

The unit system and sensing range of the F/T sensor.

Body Style

The type of transducer, i.e. Nano17, Gamma, Delta, etc.

Software Temperature Compensation

Whether or not this calibration can use software temperature compensation. Newer F/T systems use hardware temperature compensation, which is transparent to the software.

Thermistor Value at Calibration

If software temperature compensation is available, this field displays the thermistor value at calibration, which is used to perform the software temperature compensation.

Bias Slopes

If software temperature compensation is available, this field displays the bias slopes of the individual gauges. The bias slope values are used in the software temperature compensation algorithm.

Gain Slopes

If software temperature compensation is available, this field displays the gain slopes of the individual gauges. The gain slope values are used in the software temperature compensation algorithm.

Hardware Temperature Compensation

Whether or not hardware temperature compensation is installed in this transducer. Hardware temperature compensation requires no calculation by the software.

Calibration Matrix

The working calibration matrix for the sensor. If you need to calculate the force and torque values in your own custom application, you will need this matrix. To calculate the F/T values from the strain gauge voltages, multiply the voltage vector by this calibration matrix. The working matrix is affected by your choice of output units and any tool transformations you created on the F/T Sensor Options Screen.
