Temperature
The Temperature Oset setting allows the user to create up to 10 temperature oset values for connected
temperature probes. AMETEK Brookfield oers several types of temperature probes for use with the DVNext
including: DVP-94Y immersion probe (supplied with the DVNext), CPA-44PYZ embedded probe (optional with Cone/
Plate DVNext Rheometers), and SC4-13RP embedded probe (optional with Small Sample Adapter). Any
of these probes can be calibrated locally against a standard reference thermometer to determine an oset (how far
from the actual temperature does the probe read). This oset can be entered the DVNext Rheometer and identified
with a name defined by the user.
When Temperature is selected in the Device Setup menu, the Temperature Oset menu is presented (see Figure
5-3). From this menu you can create new oset values by pressing the Add Probe Oset command key at the bottom
of the screen and you can select which oset to utilize with the DVNext by pressing the circle beside the name.
