TO CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE CORRECTION: 

Navigator Pro defaults to a temperature of 70ºF.  As wood temperature increases, its electrical 

resistance decreases and indicated moisture content rises.  Lower wood temperatures result in 

lower indicated moisture content.  A correction is necessary if the wood temperature is outside 

the range of 50ºF (10ºC) to 90ºF (32ºC).  Set the temperature accordingly and the meter will 

make the correction.
