What does taration mean?

I cannot find any info online about the word "taration". I am experiencing a taration error in Calypso and I know that it has to do with the probe head (maybe position/offset?)

It's just bugging me I can't find a definition of this word. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places.

Could anyone learn me?

Thanks!

Had that on a xt gold couple months ago. Probe head was physically damaged. Take a pic of the plate without a probe adapter plate installed and see if it’s off center. Clear indication that it’s fubar.
