OFFSET AND SLOPE DISPLAY TEMPERATURE (Cont’d)
SET-UP:
“Pro 2” ..... “SLOPE” - 1.0638
“OFFSEt” - -5.3
This feature allows the operator to manipulate the displayed temperature
reading. The operator may utilize this feature for example, when switching
thermistor probes, to compensate for differences in thermistor probe
accuracy from one manufacturer to another or to offset the input reading to
match a “Reference” temperature.
The displayed temperature can be offset either positive or negative to the
actual measured temperature. Programming a positivenumber for the offset
value increases the display value. Programming a negative number for the
offset value decreases the display value. For example, if the displayed
temperature is 10° less than the measured temperature, programming a +10
for the offset value will increase the displayed value by 10 throughout the
entire range. If the displayed temperature is 10° higher than the measured
temperature,programminga-10fortheoffsetvaluewilldecreasethedisplay
value by 10 throughout the entire range.

With an average temperature input which gives a display of 110.0° at the
end of an 8 hour time period (one shift), the following formula applies:
