Set Temp Cal
You need to set the station’s temperature calibration numbers using the software.
For performance reasons, the software saves the necessary calibration numbers
for temperature in the station’s configuration file, rather than reading it from the
station itself. Therefore, in order for the software to display the correct tempera-
ture readings, you must set the station’s temperature calibration numbers from the soft-
ware.
Note:
Consult your station manual for a more detailed description of temperature calibration num-
bers.
1. Choose Set Temp Cal from the Setup menu.
The Set Temperature Cal dialog box appears. The raw reading shown in this
dialog box indicates the unadjusted reading coming from the sensor. The
adjusted reading indicates what the software displays, adjusted for any previ-
ously entered calibration number.

2. Enter the desired adjusted reading and choose OK.
The software automatically calculates the necessary calibration number to
convert the raw reading into the adjusted reading and saves that calibration
number to the station and the station’s configuration file.
Set Hum Cal
You need to set the station’s humidity calibration number using the software. For
performance reasons, the software saves the necessary calibration numbers for
humidity in the station’s configuration file, rather than reading it from the station
itself. Therefore, in order for the software to display the correct humidity reading,
you must set the station’s humidity calibration number from the software.
Note:
Consult your station manual for a more detailed description of humidity calibration number.
