FOR CONFIGURATION

COLD JUNC - Automatic COLD JUNCTION
(Cold Junction Compensation) may be turned
on or off. It is recommended that CJC be left on
(default). CJC should only be turned off if an
external cold junction compensator or ice bath is
used with the PIECAL 322.

AUTO OFF - If AUTO OFF is ON, the unit will
turn off after 30 minutes of inactivity to save
battery life. If AUTO OFF is OFF the unit will stay
on until the POWER SWITCH is moved to the off
position.

BACKLIGHT - If BACKLIGHT is ON the
backlight will light all the time the unit is powered
up. For maximum battery life turn the backlight
off when using the calibrator in areas with
enough ambient light to read the display.

STEPS/RAMP - pressing the knob will cycle
through 2, 3, 5, 11 and RAMP. The endpoints of
the steps or ramp are based on the values
stored in the

HI and LO EZ-CHECK outputs.

2 steps will automatically switch between the
values stored in the HI & LO EZ-CHECK (0 &
100%).

3 steps between the HI, Midpoint and LO
EZ-CHECK (0, 50 & 100%).

5 steps between the HI and LO EZ-CHECK
in 25% increments (0, 25, 50, 75 & 100%).

11 steps between the HI and LO EZ-CHECK
in 10% increments (0, 10, 20...80, 90 &100%).

RAMP continuously ramps up and down
between the HI and LO EZ-CHECK outputs.

STEP/RAMP TIME - pressing the knob will cycle
through 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 60
seconds.

Note: All settings are remembered even with the
power off. Removing the batteries resets the
values to factory defaults.
