6) Proceed to the next section to perform and store the first
Probe Zero
verification. DO NOT REMOVE THE TRANSDUCER FROM THE
BOLT.
The next two sections outline the procedures of how to perform a probe zero
calibration by calculating a zero value, or alternatively adjusting the temperature
value to match the probe zero value. When should I use the
Calc Zero feature
versus adjusting the
Temperature, and why?
The only time the
Calc Zero feature should be used is when a different MINI-
MAX, transducer, or transducer cable is being used, other than the one initially
used to obtain the probe zero data for the probe zero calibration bolt. In this
case, calculating the probe zero value forces the new hardware to match with the
