that the measurement errors first be obtained according to the procedure above in section
Temperature and Humidity Measurement Errors. After the Temperature and Humidity
Adjustments procedure is completed, perform the Temperature and Humidity
Measurement Errors procedure again to verify the calibration.
1. Calculate the adjustment

7. Enter the new values for TOS (TOS′), TSL (TSL′), HOS (HOS′), and HSL
(HSL′) into the thermo-hygrometer. Also set the DATE to the current date and
set the DUE date for the next calibration. If a power-on warning message is
desired when the DUE date expires, set ALERT to ON. Do not change the serial
number. Press ENTER when prompted to write the new values to the sensor.
