AUTO CAL LIMIT
Error Code System Message
Question
How do I troubleshoot this AMX-4 Series issue: “AUTO CAL LIMIT” Message Appears On The Status Display In Applications Mode?
Short Answer
In Applications Mode, This Message Indicates That One Calibration Unit Has Exceeded its Proper Range (Cannot Tell Which One). The Calibration Philosophy Is Such That Each Cal Unit (In The Generator Calibration) Depends On The Prior Cal Unit That Was Accomplished (A Confidence Building Scheme). The only Solution For This Error Is A COMPLETE Re-Calibration Of The AMX-4/4+ Unit. This Message Is Called Out In The Operators Manual, Under The “STATUS MESSAGES” Section.
