Manual C300/C310...C340 English Operation In contrast to conventional hand-held measuring devices, the C3x0 devices do not have a keypad, but what is known as a "THUMB-WHEEL" on the left-hand side of the device. The wheel can be turned up or down through 15° and can also be pressed in the middle position.

The offset is active across the whole measuring range. The original works settings (elevation head = 0m) can be achieved by setting the offset to 0.0. Two-point calibration is not possible with the C300. Page 15 of 21...
Manual C300/C310...C340 English Calibration, C310…C340 Zero point calibration CAL1 L: CAL1 L (zero point calibration) is used to adjust the zero point of the differential sensor. To do this, please remove the connecting hoses from pressure ports P1 and P2.
Manual C300/C310...C340 English Gradient calibration CAL1 H (gradient calibration) is used to adjust the gradient of the differential sensor. The adjusted value should be over 50 % of the terminal value of the sensor. The values are entered at the calibration point not as absolute values but as differential values.

Manual C300/C310...C340 English Replacing batteries When the message BAT appears on the display you have a few hours of battery life left. Open the battery cover on the back of the device. Remove the discharged batteries and replace them with new ones.
Manual C300/C310...C340 English Maintenance and adjustment When used in the area of climate-control technology, we recommend annual maintenance. Before it is checked or adjusted the device should be stored at a temperature of approx. 20°C..25°C for 12 hours. Recalibration should only be carried out by specialist staff or, better still, at accredited laboratories.
