CALIBRATION    

The R200/R250 Replaceable Sensor was carefully tested and calibrated before being 
shipped from the factory. For greatest accuracy, we recommend replacing the sensor 
every 6-12 months (does not include N400 and N450). 
 

When your new Replaceable Sensor arrives, simply turn off the recorder, remove and 
discard the old sensor, plug in the new one and power the recorder back on.  Your 
recorder will continue to record temperature and humidity without interruption.

If you have an accurate standard to compare against, the Replaceable Sensor calibration can be 
adjusted at one point.  This will not adjust the span and is not as accurate as replacing the 
Replaceable Sensor with a newly calibrated one.

is necessary.  Adjusting the pens in an opens room is not recommended as air flow can vary 
greatly within a very small area.
