Always wait for measurement instruments to stabilize in the ambient
temperature. Temperature differences are a major source of measurement
error.

n

Check that there are no heat or moisture sources near the transmitter.

n

Check that the transmitter is not in direct sunlight or close to the discharge of
the supply air ducts.

n

Check that there is no moisture on the probe. If the sensor has become wet,
you must allow it to dry before you can measure.

Adjustment Types

meters that utilize the MI70 measurement indicator (for example, HM70). See the
following sections:

One-Point Humidity Calibration and Adjustment Using a Hand-Held Meter
and HMK15 Humidity Calibrator on page 45

Connecting to the service port using a computer and a terminal program allows
you to perform calibration and adjustment tasks using serial commands. You
can, for example, perform a two-point humidity calibration and adjustment, or
clear the existing user adjustments (factory calibration will remain). See the
following sections:

Calibration and Adjustment Commands on page 36

humidity sensor of the

transmitter, you must perform the two-point humidity calibration
afterward.

HMDW110 series transmitters have two adjustment points for both humidity
measurement and temperature measurement:
