ENABLING/DISABLING CUSTOM CALIBRATION
Custom calibration allows the indicator to be programmed to suit a particular temperature sensor. This allows the indicator
to automatically show the true temperature, without having to manually apply a correction.
When the Custom or User Calibration is active the indicator will show the REM beacon lit continuously. The use of User
calibration can make a significant difference to the accuracy of the instrument, and this REM beacon provides a clear and
continuous indication of the calibration status. Isotech will configure and set user calibration when the Dry Block is ordered
with a temperature sensor.
To alter the calibration status press the Scroll key until the lower display shows,
UCAL
The upper display will indicate either,
ON
for user calibration
Or
OFF
for factory calibration of the indicator
Use the UP and DOWN keys to toggle between the two values.
When calibrating an unknown sensor against a calibrated probe it may be necessary to switch the calibration off for the
unknown, and on for the calibrated probe.
INSTRUMENT ADDRESS
Like the controller, the indicator has a configurable "address" which is used for PC communications. Each instrument has an
address; this allows several instruments to be connected in parallel on the same communications bus. The default value is 2
(The controller defaults to 1). This address would only need to be changed if more than one Dry Block is connected to the
same PC port.
To check the Address value press the scroll key until the lower display indicates,
ADDR
