the calibration pin is grounded. If for some reason the LED drive cur-
rent reaches the maximum allowable value, a RED warning light will
turn on. During the calibration process, remote monitoring of J1-Pin
5 allows the designer to ensure the system is calibrated (this output
should be at the preset calibrated output level of 1/2 Vcc when the
calibration procedure is completed). Adjusting the phototransistor
load resistor may allow the system to calibrate properly.
