6.4   Entering setpoint values and description of the calibration mode 

The calibration mode will be displayed as soon as you have pressed the control key. 
Calibration mode provides all the required displays for you to enter the setpoint value.  
 

 

Define a new setpoint value using the block of 14 keys. Confirm your entry using the Enter key. The 
controller will save the value. The calibrator accepts only setpoint values within its setting range. 

 
Description of the calibration mode 

Fig. 5 below shows the maximum possible displays that are visible depending on the equipment and the 
selected function. 
 

Info Line 

The following displays are possible in the info line: 
 

 

Calibrate 

 

 

 

There is no internal measuring instrument. A probe was not selected 

 
If a internal measuring instrument is exist, the info line displayed „Calibr“ and behind if a resistance 
thermometer (RTD), a thermocouple (TC) or a current output (mA) is connected. 
 

 

Calibr 

RTD 

   

A resistance thermometer was connected as probe and selected. 

 

Calibr TC   

 

 

A thermocouple was connected as probe and selected. 

 

Calibr mA   

 

  

A sensor with current output was connected as probe and selected. 

 
The temperature gradient is displayed on the right-hand side of the info line. 

 
Display Area 

The first line displays the current block temperature 

Block temp

 of the calibrator, the second line displays the 

temperature set-point (see fig. 5b). Irrespective of the equipment of your calibrator, the two displays are 
always visible. In the 

set temp

 (temperature set-point) line you have to enter the desired temperature set-point 

as described above. 

If the calibrator is equipped with an internal measuring instrument there are additional displays possible like 
in figure 5a:

 

During the connection ext. ref. this appears in line 1, then the block temperature is represented small in line 3. 
In line 4 the type of the test specimen and its temperature can be registered. The selection of the test 
specimen you can take at the select mode (cap.6.5).
