Troubleshooting
- Primary Test: Connect the sensor and run the data-collection program. Hold the tip of the sensor in your hand and check for the temperature readings to change.
- Secondary Test: Connect the sensor and run the data-collection program. Place the probe into an ice-water bath and/or place it into a boiling-water (or hot-water) bath.
