3.2.8 Calibration

3.2.8.1 CO2 factory calibration
Touch the menu item RESET CO2 To Factory Settings to calibrate the CO2 sensor to factory settings. The meter must be placed in a well ventilated room or placed outside and run for 15 minutes.

3.2.8.2 Automatic calibration
The PCE-CMM 8 has an integrated self-correcting ABC algorithm (Automatic Baseline Correction) for automatic adjustment of the baseline value. This calibration is carried out regularly at intervals of 10-15 days. For this, the PCE-CMM 8 requires a regular supply of fresh air. The measured value is automatically adjusted. The ABC function is permanently switched on (cannot be switched off) and adjusts the baseline value at regular intervals when the CO2 level is low. Do not use this meter in a closed environment where the CO2 concentration remains relatively high. This would negatively affect the selfcorrection of the device. We therefore recommend performing the manual calibration (3.2.8.1) weekly.

3.2.9 Offset settings

3.2.9.1 CO2 offset

Touch the menu item CO2 Sensor Calibration 3.2.9.2 Temperature offset

to set an offset for the CO2 reading.

Touch the menu item Built In Sensor

to set an offset for the temperature reading.

3.2.9.3 Humidity sensor offset

Touch the menu item Humidity Sensor

to set an offset for the humidity value reading.

3.2.10 Selecting the time zone

Touch this menu item to set the time difference from GMT. Press the

key to enable

synchronisation of the power on/off time with the internet time. To do this, the meter must be

successfully connected to the internet.

To view the details of a particular day, touch the corresponding area above the date. Touch the

icon to view the previous screen.

3.3.2 Save data history

3.4 Alarms
Touch the number in the top right corner to set the alarm values for High and Low. The CO2 meter uses these values to change the colour of the digits for the measured value and an alarm tone can be heard, if selected.

3.4.1 Set upper alarm (High)
As soon as "high" appears in the upper right corner, you can set the upper alarm value using the + and - buttons. This default setting for this alarm threshold is 1200 ppm.

3.4.2 Set lower alarm (Low)
As soon as "low" appears in the upper right corner, you can set the lower alarm value using the + and - buttons. This default setting for this alarm threshold is 800 ppm.

3.4.3 Temporarily deactivating the alarm tone If the alarm sound has been enabled in the settings, it sounds as soon as the measured value exceeds or falls below the upper/lower alarm value. However, you can also temporarily deactivate
it by touching the icon on the main screen.

5 Disposal
For the disposal of batteries in the EU, the 2006/66/EC directive of the European Parliament applies. Due to the contained pollutants, batteries must not be disposed of as household waste. They must be given to collection points designed for that purpose.
In order to comply with the EU directive 2012/19/EU we take our devices back. We either re-use them or give them to a recycling company which disposes of the devices in line with law.
For countries outside the EU, batteries and devices should be disposed of in accordance with your local waste regulations.
