    This parameter can be retrieved and can be modified, after tested well, please record those three parameters for use in future. When the data in EEPROM get problem, reload those three parameters, it doesn’t need to do calibration again. If the same model indicator to be changed and those three parameters reloaded, it doesn’t need to do calibration, either.
