Two methods can be used: Automatic and Manual. Select Automatic when a temperature
element is used, or select Manual when a manually set temperature is used.
NOTE
When Manual is selected on the Temperature compensation, a process temperature should be
set in the “Manual temp.” A temperature shown on the Main display or the Home display is this
manually set temperature.
n Reference temperature

25°C is used, so this temperature is chosen as the default value.

l TC
This method uses the linear compensation function.

In combination with the reference temperature setting, a linear compensation function is
obtained, which is suitable for all kinds of chemical solutions.
