To calibrate Temperature:
1. Select the Temperature Calibration text box from the Installation
menu and press enter. The Water Temperature Calibration dialog
box will appear.
2. Use the arrow keys to enter the percentage difference between
temperature sources. Select OK and press enter.
Temperature Averaging
Averages temperature by measuring temperature
data at a selected interval. Temperature intervals
range from one to 30 seconds.
If you select five seconds, your temperature will be averaged using measurements
taken every five seconds.

calibration dialog box
NOTE: If the temperature sensor is reading a lower
temperature than the other temperature source, you will input a
positive (+) percentage. Conversely, a negative (–) percentage
will be entered if the temperature sensor is reading a higher
temperature than the other temperature source.
