1. Disconnect the temperature probe from the unit leaving the probe itself in its housing. Place the
"CAL key" into the connector. Remove the probe from the housing. The temperature should read
97.3 F +/- .2 F. Remove the "cal" key and reconnect the probe.
2. Make sure that the unit's temperature option is in the "monitor mode". Do this by removing the
probe from the housing and observing the temperature display. "Monitor mode" should be seen in
the lower right hand side of the display. If this is not seen, wait approximately 30 - 45 seconds and
the unit will change mode to the "monitor mode."
3. Set up the Diatek 9600 calibrator. Set the calibrator to 96.4 F or use a water bath between 84 F
and 106 F. Allow the calibrator to stabilize for three (3) minutes. Place the probe into the small
hole in the calibrator. Observe the temperature display, The reading should be 96.4 F +/- .3 F
within 30 - 45 seconds.
4. Place the probe back into the housing. Set the calibrator to 106 F. Allow the calibrator to stabilize
for three minutes. Remove the probe from the housing, the unit must be in the monitor mode, if
not wait until the unit is in that mode. Place probe into the small hole at the top of the calibrator.
The reading should be 106 F +/- .3 F within 30 - 45 seconds. If using a water bath skip this part of
the test.
