Mine is reading 1/4" ~ 3/8" too long over a 7 foot distance. The manual says accurate to within 1/16th inch. Is it possible to calibrate it?

I have not yet encountered this problem. I would think re-calibration would have to be done by service technician people. I do not find any measurement "0 in" feature in on my unit, such as what my digital micrometer has. To be accurate, a definate test fixture would need to be used for calibration.

Not that I am aware of but if you call Bosch they may have the answer for that. I haven't had that issue mine is reading accurately.

I do not know of anyway to calibrate it. There might be a way, but I do not know. Ask BOSCH.

GPS itself isn't guaranteed to be more accurate than 7.8 meters worse case for consumer use. 7.8 meters is getting close to 25 feet.

I am not familiar with that reading. My unit has worked like a charm. I would suggest that you go to the vendor's website. Maybe someone else has experienced something similar. Good luck!

I do not believe that this gun is that accurate at such a distance. I have only used it within 24" range.

Looks like they are using a DS18B20 sensor, using onewire communication. Making it longer would eventuality effect communication but shouldn't effect the accuracy.

Not sure about that Michael. Maybe someone else can respond to your question. I really don't think it would calibrate correctly.....just my opinion.

I didn't calibrate mine. I haven't compared it with other thermometers, but it seems to be working just fine.

Mine works 20 to 25 ft. away. I have been very happy with it. You have to follow the initial calibration procedure exactly or the remote won't work properly or probably not at all. If I remember (?) the procedure included my other remote so they are calibrated together.

I would be wary of the accuracy, there are "dead spots". I ordered two of these and both of them had a "dead zone" of about 6 degrees (from 76F-82F) where it would show it was 76 until it suddenly spiked to 82.

As stated by Garmin, your location will be accurate within 10ft if properly calibrated. I will state that you will never find a device that will tell you "exact" long/lat but most devices get pretty close.

I am not sure you are doing anything wrong. I have owned different devices (GPS) and with others hiking each could get a different reading. If you are sAying it is 1/2 mile off I would send it back and write them why. Garmin is very good about making it right.

I assume there is some measure of calibration at the factory. There is no calibration certificate, nor is there any way to calibrate the unit short of modifying the cable length. It is, however, the most accurate unit I have owned. Unfortunately, that accuracy is only with the original thermocouples - using other type K thermocouples from Amazon and other suppliers results in bizarre readings. It would be very useful to have a calibration function on the unit.

They were trying to say 7.4 - 22.4. Don't forget to calibrate this properly! It scares you when you don't haha

It is very close to being 10 feet long. It may vary by 1 inch here and there, but it's pretty accurate

In my experience with this speedometer, the range was EXTREMELY limited, probably less than two feet. Try moving the speedometer closer and see if that gives you a better reading?

I have had no problems with mine. Accurate as far as I have been able to determine.

I'm not aware of a calibration function to it. It's simply quite accurate out of the package.
