Dip Switch Set-Up
To set up the KT6 for your specific application, you might
need to change some of the Dip Switches. The switches
are located under the chart in the lower half of the
dial plate. A pointed object can be used to change the
settings. Remember to install the correct chart to match
corresponding dip switch setting.

Calibration
Your instrument was carefully tested and calibrated
before being shipped from the factory. Additional
calibration is not required. However, should calibration be
desired in the future, we recommend that it be at our lab.
Call Customer Service at (630) 543-3747. If you wish to
calibrate yourself, follow these procedures:
1. To activate the calibration mode, turn the unit OFF.
Now press the "ON/OFF" key and the "ALARM"
key at the same time. The unit is in the "User
Calibration" mode when the red LED is ON. The
display will show a "C" during the warm up period
and then will flash between 0 and F or 0 and C
(depending on measurement selected). Match the
reading of the recorder to the reading of the
reference standard.

"CHART ROTATION (UP ARROW)" key. To lower
the unit of measurement, press the "HOME (DOWN
ARROW)" key. To ensure that you have matched
the standard, allow the pens to stabilize for at least
30 seconds before exiting calibration mode. If your
KT6 only has one pen, skip to Step 4.
3. Press the "ALARM" button for 2 seconds to switch
from Pen 1 to Pen 2. Repeat step 2 for Pen 2
temperature calibration.
4. When calibration is complete, simply press the
"ON/OFF" key to save the calibration settings.
Calibration is stored in memory even after you turn
the unit OFF. User Calibration information will not
be lost if AC Power fails.
