Manual Part # 800-1402-001 Rev E  Page 45 of 48 
The following Programming Parameters are available only on General Purpose 
DROs with firmware ending in “C” (part # 700-1600-236). 
Pr 39 – Non-Linear Compensation Enable.     [0 or 1] 
Enables or disables the Non-Linear Compensation feature of the DRO. 
Default = 0 (off) 
Pr 40 – Non-Linear Compensation Interval.    [0.5 to 10.0, 5.0] 
Sets the distance interval used while performing non-linear compensation 
calibration. 
Default = 5” (127mm) 
Pr 41 – Temperature Compensation Enable.     [0 or 1] 
Enables or disables the temperature compensation feature of the DRO. 
Default = 0 (off) 
Pr 42 – Temp. Comp. Low Position. Range: Any displayable position 
This parameter indicates to the DRO the lowest (smallest) position of the 
encoder under normal operation based on the ABS position. 
If a new datum is applied to the ABS position, this parameter must be updated 
for proper operation. 
Default = 0.00 
Pr 43 – Temp. Comp. High Position. Range: Any displayable position 
This parameter indicates to the DRO the highest (largest) position of the 
encoder under normal operation based on the ABS position. If a new datum is 
applied to the ABS position, this parameter must be updated for proper 
operation. 
Default = 0.00. 
Pr 44 – Temperature Compensation Coefficient.   [10 to 999, 222] 
This parameter allows the user to modify the temperature expansion coefficient 
value used when temperature compensation is enabled. The value displayed is 
internally multiplied by 10
-7
 to yield an expansion in meters/meter °K x 10
-6
. For 
example, the thermal expansion coefficient for aluminum is 22.2 m/m °K x 10
-6
. 
This would be entered into the display as 222. 
Default = 222 
Range: 10 to 999 will yield values from 1.0 m/m °K x  10
-6
 to 99.9 m/m °K x 10
-6. 
Note: Coefficients MUST be in m/m °K, NOT in/in °F.
