4. Select °C or °F via the °C/°F button.
5. Carefully insert the calibration cable into the sub-miniature female connector on the side
panel.
Note: For greater accuracy, especially if there is a difference between the internal temperature of the
calibrator and the device under calibration, use a thermocouple cable rather than the copper cable that is
supplied with the calibrator. The thermocouple cable must match the thermocouple type of the device under
calibration.
6. Connect the other end of the cable to the device to be calibrated.
Note: The SOURCE icon will blink until the output has stabilized.
