My new 4.3 thermocouple build is reading 218.5 in boiling water with the TC. Is that within spec for a successful build or are there things I should check? I got the TC reading around 211.7 by changing mv/C to 5.17 (the calculated 5.15 still read a bit high). The thermistor probes are working as expected.
I saw another thread where someone mentioned that their new 4.3 TC build was reading 217 so they swapped in the ATmega from a 4.2 build and that solved the issue. I gave it a shot with the ATmega from my 4.2 build but the TC read about the same.
I'm just wondering if I'm OK to calibrate it out or if I should be hunting for a problem.
Thanks,
Mike
