+/− Toggles between positive and
negative values.

˅ Decreases the value by 1.
CLR Deletes the entire value.
CANCEL Cancels the setting and returns to

The instrument’s temperature compensation function corrects temperature by treating the
temperature dependence of the measurement target as a linear function. The error will increase
if the measurement target’s temperature dependence diverges from that linear function.
For example, if the temperature coefcient α has been set so that the ambient temperature
T
1
is corrected to the reference temperature
T
0
, the error will increase if the ambient temperature
changes to
T
2
. (See gure below.)
