I completed the upgrade of my Porfilux II to a Profilux 3 before I noted the temp probe calibration values from the Profilux software. Now my temp probe readings seem inacurate. Is there a procedure that I can use to recalibrate my temperature probe for accurate use with my newly upgraded Profilux 3?

a calibration is not possible - for that you would need fluids with exact known temperatures...

but if you know the deviation you can use the function "adjust temperature"

if you want to do it 100%: connect the old front board again temporarily until you got the old ADC-values

I had a similar thing happen. I noted the temp calibration values. Then performed the upgrade and added the temp calibration values to the P3. But after doing it it was measuring much higher than before the upgrade. I checked it against a calibrated thermometre and it was nearly 2 degress C high. I adjust the temp down but it did leave me a little concerned about the probe's accuracy now.
