The moisture offset adjusts the moisture probe (Model 6760)
readings to match an alternative moisture measurement (ex:
oven dry). This is often necessary because the factory moisture
Cal Profiles do not represent all soil types. An alternative
moisture measurement method must be used to find the %M
needed for the offset determination.
Carefully read and follow the instructions below before
beginning the Moisture offset process.
To access the Moisture Offset menu, press 〈3〉 at the Offset menu
shown on page
7–2. The gauge displays:
The Moisture Offset menu shows the moisture offset values
stored in memory (if any) and the Change and Enable/Disable
options.
NOTE
If a value is already enabled, the display shows the
Enable option instead.
To change the displayed value, or create a new offset, press
〈1〉.
 To enable the displayed value, press 〈2〉. The gauge
enables the moisture offset value and returns to the
Ready screen.
To change the Moisture Offset value press 1 at the menu above.
The gauge then asks for the Probe Moisture value (M) in lb/ft
3
or kg/m
3
. Press Enter after entering the M value from the probe
reading.
