Temperature Compensation
As air temperature changes, so does the speed of sound. This change can
cause 0.18% drift in distance for every °C change. The TEMPCOMP Mode
allows compensation in the readings for this change. The DCR-WEB contains
an internal thermistor which measures temperature in °F. By turning temperature
compensation on, the effects of temperature changes will be reduced.
