Temperature sensor
In order to be able to achieve equally reliable
test values under different climatic conditions,
the Lactate Scout+ is equipped with a
temperature sensor. It is located underneath
the insertion slot for the sensors.
The functionality of the temperature sensor
impacts the establishment of test readiness
as well as the achieved test values. Therefore,
contamination must be avoided. To ascertain
the ambient temperature, ensure that the
temperature sensor is not touched by hand
or covered.
The ambient temperature of the device can
be displayed for 2 seconds by pressing the
scroll wheel briey in test mode.
Attention: Ensure that the measuring device
and sensors do not vary considerably from
each other in temperature prior to a test (e.g.
for winter sports or after storing the sensors in
the refrigerator). If necessary, allow sufcient
time for the temperature of the sensors and the
measuring device to adjust.
