GENERAL INFORMATION 

Any of these readouts can be recalled by turning the unit off and back 

on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
8. STORAGE AND RECALL OF CALIBRATOR SETTINGS

 

 

 

While operating as a calibrator, the unit can store and recall up to 10 output settings (each with 

independent parameters, eg. °F/°C, sensor type, and resolution) in random access memory.

 

 

To Store Outputs:

 

 

 

1. While in the CALIB OPR mode, depress the STORE key. Note that the OPR annunciator is 

replaced by STO.

 

2. Next depress one of the memory location numbers (keys 0, 1, 2, .... 9).

 

The corresponding memory annunciator turns on, and the calibrator returns to the OPR mode.

 

eg. STORE 2

 

 

 

NOTES:

 

• The enabled memory annunciator shows that the output set-up has 

been saved.

 

• When a set up is stored in a location already in use, the new set-up 

replaces the old.

 

• Saved set-ups are retained during power-off.

 

• To store a reading of 0° just press the CLEAR while in the CALIB OPR   

mode. Then depress STORE and a location number.

 

 

To Recall Outputs:

 

 

 

1. While in the CALIB OPR mode, set-ups saved earlier in memory can be recalled to program the 

calibrator output. First depress the RECALL key to recall a set-up.

 

Note that the RCL annunciator turns on, OPR turns off, and all memory locations annunciators 

are blanked.

 

 

2. Next press the key with the number corresponding to the desired memory location. The 

corresponding annunciator turns on, and the LCD updates to show the new calibrator setting.  

eg. RECALL 8

 

 

3. Several stored set-ups can be randomly recalled by a key sequence such as:

 

eg. RECALL 6

 

     RECALL 3

 

     RECALL 9 etc. 

 

4. To return the unit to the CALIB OPR mode after recalling the last set-up, press the OPR key.

 

 

NOTES:

 

• Any other key except ON/OFF and CLEAR will also return the OPR
