3. To return to Fahrenheit scale, repeat the key sequence. The Model 400

responds: “Degrees Fahrenheit” indicating Fahrenheit scale is in effect.

NOTE: When switching from Fahrenheit to Celsius, or vice versa,

the change applies to all zones configured to read temperature. When

switching temperature scales it is important to reset high and low

temperature limits on all temperature zones. Refer to Section 5.4.1 to

reset temperature limits.

5 .6 temperature CalIbratIon

To compensate for minor variances in sensor accuracy, an offset may be

programmed for each temperature zone. The amount of offset is measured

in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius. Adjustments are possible within

a range from -10 degrees to +10 degrees. For example, if zone 3 is sensing

temperature and is reading 1 degree too high, then the calibration for zone

3 is set at -1 to obtain an accurate reading.
