for normal, everyday operation.
The Adjust Calibration Card Pots (

) command is used to enable the -4.4 Volt or +4.4 Volt source on the special
calibration card to allow for their adjustment. A secondary, diagnostic use for this command is to program the
channel sequencer to “sit” on a specified channel without changing address lines, accessing temperature
sensors, or making/breaking relay contacts.
