3.2.5. Adjusting the CALIBRATION 

 
It is possible to adjust the calibration of the device. You can do so by applying a

  menu,  simply  press  the  CAL  button 

.  The  number 

displayed is the multiplication factor that will be applied to the measurements. A factor of 1.000 keeps the 
calibration unchanged. You can enter any number between 0.500 and 2.500. 
 
The  4  digits  of  the  correction  factor  are  changed  individually.  For  example,  if  the 

Correction  Factor

  is 

1.000 and you want to change it to 1.200, just press the first 0 (make sure it turns blue, like this 

and then increment it twice with the Up button. 
 

Initial Setting

The last measured 

value (145.3 W) is 

displayed between 

the Up/Down buttons

 

The selected digit 

turns blue

 

The adjusted power value 

(174.4 W) is displayed 
between the Up/Down 

buttons

 

 

Once the value is entered, press the On/Off/Settings button to exit the menu and automatically save your 
new settings.
