Should the bath fluid temperature display disagree with your calibrated refer-
ence thermometer, the internal temperature sensor (rtd1) may need calibration.
Do not pick calibration points that are outside the safe operating limits of the
fluid in your application. For example with water, 90°C and 5°C would be
typical calibration points.
NOTE: If it is more convenient, the low-end calibration can be performed before
doing the high-end.

Press the SCROLL and NO buttons as shown until StorE is displayed, press
YES to accept the new value, press NO to abort it.
NOTE: Both the high and low temperatures must be entered for a valid calibra-
tion. If power is lost before the procedure is complete, critical data needed for
the calculation of calibration parameters will be lost. After pressing the YES
button at the StorE prompt wait several seconds before proceeding to ensure
that a bad calibration message does not appear. Premature use of the keypad
after pressing the YES button may cancel the bad calibration error message.
Run the bath to a suitable high-
end calibration point. Place a
