My DA RKE is reading 4 degrees lower than the actual water temperature. I used three different glass thermometer and two read 82 and one read 81. One thermometer is a lab grade one I borrowed from school for the weekend.

I can not find a way to calibrate the probe or adjust the actual screen temp. My Googlefoo has apparently failed me as I can not find a way to make them read the same. Right now I just lowered the temp settings on the heaters of the RKE. Any help or insight would be appreciated.

Are you using the Itemp probe or the regular probe? Calibration should be similar. On the display unit select "inputs" from there you should be able to select the module your temp probe is plugged into, and once you've found that there should he an option to calibrate.

You can calibrate from the head unit. Temp on the RKE is a single point calibration. Calibrate it at your tank temp.
