how do you calibrate this product?

I found no calibration feature. You can contact the manufacturer and they will answer your question further.

I found nothing in the instructions on how to calibrate. We just installed ours and so far it's accurate. Time will tell.

Hi DJ, the product comes with the tool needed to calibrate. Here's a description:http://www.cdn-timeandtemp.com/article/how-recalibrate-your-thermometer

No it does not have to be calibrated. Simple to use, and good instructions. The cable withstood a huge test with a giant commercial smoker (for a graduation party)...still is perfectly functional.

Calibrating does, indeed, help, and it's really easy to do (just follow the on-screen instructions). Out of the box, my kit was about 20% off from reality (on a 10K run, it was only showing 8K traveled). I used the local high school track to calibrate the kit by doing a measured 400m lap around the track, and now I'm within 1.25% of accurate measurement which is good enough for me (it's still showing on the low side). This last weekend's 5 mile race shows up as 4.94 miles on nikeplus.com, but that's good enough for me. Hope this helps you.

You can actually calibrate yourself. There are many sites available on line that tell you how to do it such as this one http://www.plasmatelevisions.org/article/plasma-television-tips/how-to-calibrate-your-plasma-tv.html

You can purchase some calibration solution at almost any gardening/hydroponics shop. The solution is a perfect 4.0. You put a little in a cup (about an inch) and place the tester in there, in the on position. If you don't read 4.0, you can turn that little screw in the back until you do. Thats it. Calibrated.

Comes with batteries and little screw driver to calibrate it (maybe this model doesn't I don't remember?). It works but get what you pay for and not the best quality, to calibrate it up use calibrate solution and follow directions.

Hey you properly calibrated it by using RODI water. You must put RODI water where you use it for the saltwater then just above it is a black cap an under the cap is a screw to calibrate it. So look into the eye part then adjust it to zero then it should work fine

I checked the users guide and do not see any information about calibration of the unit. There is a support number you can call.

Go to soundandvision.com to read a full review of this set and the calibration settings they used. Keep in mind that every set is different and those settings should be used as a starting point.

Sounds like it's defective. I never really calibrated mine, but it seems to work fine. Sorry! Send it back

Mine is not calibrated and is way off. They expect me to find a 5 lb. weight somewhere in order to calibrate the item.

It came calibrated but I also had an old school fool scale that I used to verify the digital scale was correct. There is also an instruction manual.

Did you calibrate it? You need to have or make a calibration sample at the correct temp and then adjust it. Mine was right on out of the box but they do vary

I bought those too, the readings with the no-calibration strips still came out as 0.1's almost all the time with occasional 0.2's just like the first set of calibrated strips that I had bought with the meter originally. I'm an engineer and don't know exactly how they do it, but nanoscale manufacturing these days is doing amazing things so maybe the calibration sample is on the strip sub-microscopically and we simply can't see it. Just follow the instructions and be happy.

I calibrated mine using a iOne calibration tool, granted it wasn't off by much but i needed to calibrate based on a different gamma value than the 2.2
