The heat source has reached operating temperature and stabilized when the
temperature meter needle remains centered.
Once the temperature stabilizes, calibration may begin. Once stabilized, the
temperature will change less than plus-or-minus one degree Fahrenheit.

bearing scanner.
10 Plug your computer into COM3.
11 Turn on your computer.
12 Be sure that your computer has installed communications software, that it is set to use
full duplex, and that the baud rate is set to 9,600.
The baud rate of your computer must match the baud rate of the selected serial port
because they are in direct, one-to-one, communication with one another. For example,
the baud rate for COM3 was set to 9600 at the factory. If the customer changed this
baud rate, your computer must be set to the changed value.
