L5300 and L5200 On-Demand Calibrator (ODC) Instructions

Learn how to calibrate your L5300 or L5200 meter with the On-Demand Calibrator (ODC) with these easy-to-follow steps! This video provides a step-by-step guide to ensure accurate calibration, from matching serial numbers to properly seating your meter on the ODC. Follow along to keep your moisture measurements precise and reliable.

Instructions:

• Make sure the serial number on your On-Demand Calibrator (ODC) matches the serial number on your meter. The serial number can be found on the battery door cover.
• Place the ODC on its legs on a non-metallic surface.
• Turn the meter on, then use the button and jog pad to select the CALIBRATION menu item.
• Place the meter on the ODC, correctly “seating” the meter sensor pad firmly in the recessed area of the ODC.
  IMPORTANT: Failure to correctly and firmly “seat” the sensor pad in the recessed area will cause an inaccurate calibration.
• Verify the meter is seated correctly by moving the meter slightly front to back and then side to side.
• Apply light downward pressure and press the button 3 times. The meter LCD will flash “Reading” which indicates it’s going through the calibration process.
• When the calibration procedure is completed, the meter will display “Lift Meter in Air for 5 Seconds.” Immediately remove the meter from the ODC and hold the meter in the air for approximately 5 seconds until the words “Calibration Done” appear on the display.
• Press the button to save the calibration and return to the menu.
