To fix the calibration function on your Haglof DME, follow these steps:
1. Measure Distance: Use a tape to measure a 10-meter distance between the transponder and the front of the instrument. 2. Enter Calibration Mode: Press the red button repeatedly until function F9 appears on the display. 3. Check the Display: The screen should show "10m" indicating calibration is ready. 4. Ensure Correct Interval: The instrument will approve calibration only if the measured interval is between 9.6 and 10.4 meters. 5. Temperature Adjustment: Allow the instrument enough time to adjust to the current temperature (function F7). If carried in a pocket, it may take up to 10 minutes for full adjustment. 6. Consider Temperature Error: The temperature-dependent error is approximately 2 cm per degree Celsius.
If calibration still fails, ensure the instrument is used in proper conditions and repeat the process.

The DME uses ultrasonic impulses to determine a distance. The speed for the ultrasonic signals to travel in the air depends on factors such as air humidity, air pressure and above all, the air temperature. The DME has a built-in temperature sensor that automatically will compensate divergences and give correct distance measures even if temperature changes.

(or decreased if moving forward) continuously. To use your DME as a prism, choose your prism factor [F4] by pressing the red button 4 times. Once you have set the prism factor, select DBH Measuring at [F2] by pressing the red button twice. When you take a reading the number displayed is the minimum diameter that a tree should have to be counted in the plot, a calculation based on the set prism factor and distance to plot center.
