Temperature
Select DEVICES < TEMPERATURE from the
DEVICES menu. This command displays the current
temperature of the FaroArm and the elapsed time of the
temperature sampling.
Because different components heat up or cool down at
different rates, the FaroArm must be at a steady state
temperature (within ±5° Celsius for five minutes) before measuring with
the device.
