maximum amount of temperature compensation
allowable is ±6°C. You cannot apply temperature
compensation using Fahrenheit or Kelvin units. After
applying the desired amount of temperature
compensation to T1, press the SETUP button again
to save your setting and proceed to the next step.
On the DT62, the next step is Step 2A—setting the
amount of temperature compensation (offset) to be
applied to the Channel 2 (T2) thermocouple. After
using the same procedure as before to apply the
desired amount of temperature compensation to T2,
press the SETUP button again to proceed to Step 3.
Note: Changing thermocouple type automatically
restores offset value(s) to 0.0.
Step 3 enables you to change the triggering time of
the Auto Power Off (APO) function from its default
value of 30 minutes. During Step 3, the primary
readout shows the term P – and the secondary
readout shows the current value of the APO
triggering time (the period of time during which no
front-panel buttons are pressed).
Each press of the button increases the APO
triggering time by 1 minute, and each press of the
button decreases it by 1 minute. The maximum
APO triggering time is 60 minutes. If the APO
triggering time has been decreased to 5 minutes, the
next press of the button causes the term oFF to
appear on the secondary readout. Disabling the APO
function in this way also causes the clock icon in the
upper left corner of the LCD (Fig. 2, Callout 1) to
disappear. The missing clock icon is a reminder that
the thermometer will not automatically power itself
off after an extended period of inactivity. With APO
disabled, be aware that leaving the thermometer
unattended for an extended period of time risks
draining the battery.
