you start measurement in the 0 s to 30 s mode,
it will be switched to 0 s to 60 s mode
automatically if the measurement cannot finish
within 30 seconds. After the switch, no further
adjustment can be made to the Scale X.

value. Three modes are available: 0 °C to 0.5

scale by the temperature differences. A smaller
scale results in a larger curve.
