App id: INST-07. Reference version 1.0.
How to fill it
Fill the inputs. The tool shows the outputs.
On the tool screen, Calc is the working sheet. Presets stores values you reuse. Reference is the formula, assumptions, and provenance below.
Formula
Error = actual − expectedInputs
| Name | Unit |
|---|---|
| Measured signal (camera) | mA |
| Expected signal | mA |
| Span (default 16 mA) (optional) | mA |
Outputs
| Name | Unit |
|---|---|
| Absolute error (hero result) | mA |
| Percent of span | % |
| Percent of reading | % |
Diagnose
This tool does not attach diagnose observations.
Assumptions
- Leave span blank for a 16 mA (4–20 mA) current span.
Provenance
- % of reading is omitted (non-finite) when expected is zero.
