  The output data from a beam position monitor (BPM) system usually was calibrated on the test bench and so on. The gain of the output data may drift due to unpredictable imbalance among output signals from the pickup electrodes, because they must travel through separate paths,cables, connectors, attenuators, switches, and then are measured by detectors. The gain calibration has been tried to apply for the BPM system in J-PARC Main Ring. This paper reports the result of beam based gain callibration to estimate the imbalance, which was performed measuring the response from four output data of a BPM head.
