Reset a Cooper-Atkins Lumity Oil probe
To "reset" a Cooper-Atkins Lumity oils probe, you likely need to perform a factory reset by holding both the 'Hold' and 'Power' buttons simultaneously for at least three seconds until the screen displays "RST", then press 'Hold' again to confirm the reset. After cleaning the instrument, you will need to perform a calibration for the device to function correctly after the reset.
Here's a step-by-step guide:
Clean the Probe:
Before any reset or calibration, thoroughly clean the probe to remove any excess oil or moisture.
Perform Factory Reset:
- Turn the instrument on by pressing the Power button.
- Press and hold both the Hold and Power buttons at the same time.
- Continue holding for at least three seconds until the display shows "RST".
- Press the Hold button again to confirm and complete the reset.
Calibrate the Probe:
- After resetting, you must calibrate the device for accurate readings.
- Warm the reference oil to approximately 50°C.
- Immerse the clean probe into the hot reference oil.
- Compare the reading with the label value.
- If the deviation is more than 2%, adjustment is necessary using the configuration options.
- If it's less than or at 2%, no adjustment is needed.
- Follow the user manual to enter Configuration Mode (by pressing and holding the Power, Hold, and Power buttons simultaneously) to adjust the settings as needed.
