    5. Settings and calibration 5.1 Drying Mode setting 1. Standard drying mode This mode is the default setting and is suitable for most samples. The heating temperature can be set, the sample is heated to the set temperature during the test, and the temperature is maintained until the test ends automatically.

  • Page 17: Ending Mode Setting

    5.2 Ending Mode setting 1. Automatic ending mode The test will automatically stop at a certain point in time (when the moisture content does not change within 45 seconds) in the automatic stop mode. This mode takes effect after 15 seconds of heating. After the test is completed, the display shows the sample moisture content, heating time and current temperature.

  • Page 18: Calibration

    5.3 Calibration Weight calibration is the correction of the difference between the measured value displayed and the true weight (mass) of a sample, or the reduction of the difference to a level within specified permissible error limits. Procedure: 1. Click “MENU” on the homepage, then click “CALIBRATION” to perform the weight calibration operation.
