5.4 Notes on Temperature and Humidity Calibrations:
1. During either calibration, pressing the button at any time will return
the instrument to the normal operating mode, and no calibration data
will be changed.
2. While performing the humidity calibration, the environment should be
maintained at stable conditions (i.e. constant temperature and constant
humidity) to optimize the accuracy.
3. Always begin the temperature calibration process with the 0°C (32°F)
temperature-controlled chamber and the humidity calibration process
with the 32.8% RH@25°C standard cavity. For maximum efficiency,
insert the probe into the conditioned environment 10 minutes for
temperature or 30 minutes for humidity before applying power to the
instrument and starting the calibration process.
4. Whenever the probe is inserted into a standard humidity cavity or
temperature-controlled chamber, always allow at least 30 minutes to
ensure ambient conditions have stabilized.
