Terminology Device – In case of this manual is by the device meant WiFi sensor. DUT (Device Under Test) – Device to which is carried out accuracy verification (that means calibration of the device). Standard – Measurement equipment (e.g. thermometer) or reference scale of certain quantity (e.g.
Calibration (accuracy verification) To verify the measurement accuracy (calibration) of temperature, relative humidity, CO concentration and barometric pressure a specific equipment for generating these quantities (calibration chamber) is required. Calibration of the instrument is performed by placing sensing element of WiFi sensor (DUT) and sensing element of standard into calibration chamber.

between the calibration chamber and the environment - especially over the cables of standard or DUT. When calibrating the temperature and/or the relative humidity, the airflow in the chamber must be about 0.5 to 1 m/s. It is strongly recommended to insert only the probe to the chamber without body of DUT.
Preparing the WiFi sensor for calibration Perform an optical check for mechanical or other visible damage. In case of damage, hand over the device for repair. Check if the device is not reporting a weak battery for real-time clock backup. If so, follow recommendation in User manual.
Adjustment Adjustment means action resulting in setting WiFi sensor to the state, when its actual measurement accuracy is identical or better than measurement accuracy specified in instruction manual. Adjustment is possible only for measured values (temperature, relative humidity, CO concentration or pressure).
Adjustment Procedure For adjustment of WiFi sensors is WifiSensorUtility used. This software can be obtained from technical support on the request. Install WifiSensorUtility software at computer with Windows operating system. Administrator rights for installation of software are required. ...

For device with external temperature probes, it is advisable to place only an external probe into the calibration chamber generating the relevant quantity. If the calibration is carried out at different temperature than ambient temperature, a sufficient part of the cable with the probe must be inserted into calibration chamber.
Saving of the new Adjustment Temperature Adjustment (W0710, W0711, W0741, W3745) Input adjustment can be performed using Service – Device adjustment menu item, however, we do not recommend this way. The device inputs for Pt1000 RTD sensors are very stable. From this reason is not recommended to change calibration constants if the probe does not measure accurately.

If correction to cable length is correct, it can be set user calibration: If the WiFi sensor measured 25 °C before this setting, then 26 °C will measure after it. IE-WFS-KAL-WiFi-01...

Temperature/Humidity Adjustment (W3710, W3711, W4710, W3721, W3745, W7710) Important note: The calibration constants are not stored in the instrument itself, but inside the probe. Calibration constants at Digi probe cannot be restored by backup file downloaded from device. Digi probes can be restored into factory defaults only.

Relative humidity adjustment. Enter the measured values of the standard and the device. Click Save new calibration button finally: If the device measured 73.2 %RH before adjustment, then measures 75.3 %RH after it. Important note: Capacitive humidity sensors usually drifts at high humidity and not at low humidity values.
