Refer to section Thermistor Calibration - Steinhart-Hart Method .
Attention
These commands do not apply to ITC8000-KRYO!
Note
The selection by which method (exponential or Steinhart-Hart) the sensor calibration will be
executed, depends on the order in which the coefficients are transmitted:
· If the last transmitted calibration command belongs to the exponential method (see above),
then the calculation is also done with the exponential method.
· If the last command was a Steinhart-Hart parameter, then this method is selected.
