➭ Set the rotary switch to "Temp
The last selected temperature measurement or sensor, i.e. type K
or Pt100/Pt1000, remains in memory and is accordingly
displayed. Press the FUNC | ENTER key in order to change to the
other measuring function if required. The sensor type, i.e. Pt100
or Pt1000, is detected automatically and displayed.
There are two different ways to compensate for cable resistance:
Automatic Compensation
➭ Press the ZERO | ESC key.
"Short leads" appears at the display.
If you prefer to enter cable resistance directly, you can skip the
following entry prompt.
➭ Short circuit the measuring instrument's connector cables.
"000.00 " appears at the display. After pressing the FUNC |
ENTER key, automatic compensation of cable resistance is
activated for all subsequent measurements. The short-circuit
can now be eliminated, and the device is ready for use.
Entering Cable Resistance
➭ Press the ZERO | ESC key once again in the automatic
compensation menu.
➭ Enter the known resistance of the connector cables with the
scroll keys: Select the digit to be changes with the
