Where T

and R

are the measured temperature and resistance at –25.00°C and

alpha, rzero, and delta are the new values of ALPHA, R0, and DELTA calcu-
lated above.

Program the new values for DELTA (delta), R0 (rzero), ALPHA (alpha), BETA
(beta) into the instrument with the following steps.

1.

Reference Section 7.13 to display R

0

.

2.

Press “SET” then use the “UP” or “DOWN” keys until the correct nu-
merical setting is displayed. Press “SET” to accept the new value.

3.

Repeat step 2 for ALPHA and DELTA.

Accuracy and Repeatability

Check the accuracy of the instrument at various points over the calibrated
range. If the instrument does not pass specification at all set-points, repeat the
Calibration Procedure.
