align the remote and console through a window to get a clear
line of sight.
5.7 Adjustment or Calibration
Note:
The calibrated value can only be adjusted on the console.
The remote sensor(s) always displays the un-calibrated or measured
value.
Note:
The measured humidity range is between 10 and 99%.
Humidity cannot be accurately measured outside of this range. Thus,
the humidity cannot be calibrated below 10% or above 99%.
The purpose of calibration is to fine tune or correct for any sensor error
associated with the devices margin of error. The measurement can be
adjusted from the console to calibrate to a known source.
Calibration is only useful if you have a known calibrated source you
can compare it against, and is optional. This section discusses
practices, procedures and sources for sensor calibration to reduce
manufacturing and degradation errors. Do not compare your readings
obtained from sources such as the internet, radio, television or
newspapers. They are in a different location and typically update once
per hour.
The purpose of your weather station is to measure conditions of your
surroundings, which vary significantly from location to location.
5.7.1 Humidity Calibration
Prior to entering the calibration mode, press the
C
button to
select the humidity sensor you wish to adjust.
To enter the humidity calibration mode, press and hold the
ALARM/ADJUST
and
MIN/MAX/-
buttons at the same time for 5
seconds and the humidity value will begin flashing. Press the
C
button to increase the humidity and the
MIN/MAX/-
button
to decrease the humidity reading in 1% increments. To rapidly increase
(or decrease) the humidity reading, press and hold the
C
or
MIN/MAX/-
button.
