DXC100: Why are the temperature readings on my DXC100 higher than expected and the humidity readings lower than expected?

Humidity and temperature measurements are internal measurements, i.e. they are taken inside the case. Therefore, the temperature is higher inside the case than outside, and conversely, the humidity is lower inside the case than outside. These measurements must be accurate and inside the case, as they are used in the automated calibration process in the product.

In order to apply an offset to these measurements, one option is to use the mathematical channels available in DracalView to implement a new channel on which you have applied your 1-point compensation (i.e. an offset) to your measurements.
