Auto: In automatic temperature compensation, the controller meas-
ures the temperature using an RTD (resistance temperature device)
or 22kNTC thermistor in the sensor. The controller then uses the
measured temperature to calculate membrane permeability correc-
tions, solubility factors (for oxygen only), and the millivolt to pH con-
version factor (for pH-corrected free chlorine only).
Manual: In manual temperature compensation, the controller uses
the temperature entered by the user to calculate membrane perme-
ability corrections, solubility factors (for oxygen only), and the millivolt
to pH conversion factor. It does NOT use the actual process temper-
ature. Do NOT use manual temperature compensation unless the dif-
ference between the calibration and measurement temperatures is
less than 2°C.
Manual temperature compensation is useful if the sensor RTD
has failed and a replacement sensor is not available.
If Manual temperature compensation is selected, be sure to enter the
desired temperature.
