Overall probe accuracy is a combination of thermistor interchangeability, bridge-resistor
accuracy, and error of the Steinhart-Hart equation. Interchangeability is the principle component
error. If needed, an estimate of the interchangeability error for 0 to 50 °C, that can be used as the
Offset
parameter of the
Therm109()
instruction, can be determined with a 1-point or 2-point
calibration.
