Temperature
The 764 is fitted with a solid state temperature sensor that should not normally require
calibration.
The unit can be checked by putting it together with another, known accurate,
temperature measuring device for at least an hour. Make sure that the two sensors are
within 2cm (1") of each other and that neither are close to anything hot or cold,
sunlight etc..
If the units do not agree the 764 can be adjusted by selecting
Set\Calibrate\Temperature, this allows the user to change the temperature offset with
the é and ê buttons before pressing the Set button. Pressing "X" leaves the offset
unchanged.
The offset is the temperature (always in Centigrade) that is added to the measured
temperature.
Example: Correct temperature is 20.4°C, 764 indicates 20.1°C, current offset is -0.2°C
The offset should be changed to +0.1°C
