4.1
Set material temperature compensation
The relative material moisture depends on the temperature of the material. The instrument
automatically compensates this temperature by measuring the ambient temperature.
In addition, you can enter the temperature manually and thus increase the accuracy of the
measured value. You can set the value with the "SET" key and the "CLR" key. This value is not
saved and must be re-entered each time the instrument is switched on.
Increase value with SET
Decrease value with CLR
4.2
Setting the moist / dry indicator
With the values for the dry and wet indicator, you can adapt the display of the DRY/MOIST/WET
scale to a specific material. Once you have entered the appropriate values, you can see at a
glance whether the sample is dry or too moist for your application. Use the [SET] key and the
[CLR] key to increase or decrease the value and the [MODE] key to change from "Dry" to "Wet".

Setting the temperature unit
You can switch the temperature unit from °C to °F. This
setting will be saved to the device and is still available
even after the meter is switched on again.
