Operating the Meter

To use a correction factor for a probe NOT in memory...

1. Press F3 (MENU). The First Menu Screen will appear.

2. Press 8 (NEXT) to access the Second Menu Screen.

3. Press 1 (COR FACT). A screen will appear that shows

the correction factor.

4. Use the correction factors on the handle of the probe to

determine the appropriate correction factor and then

use the numeric keys on the meter to enter this value.

Enter a three digit number, ignoring the decimal point,

and rounding to two digits to the right of the decimal

point. If you make a mistake, just enter more digits

until correct. For example, to enter a correction factor

of 1.22, simply enter 1, 2, and then 2 while a correction

factor of 0.94 is entered as 0, 9, and 4.

5. Press Enter to save this correction factor. The meter

automatically returns to the measurement screen.

6. The numeric correction factor will be displayed on

the right side of the third line of the display in the form

CF X.XX.
