form a sentence

0There is a sensor in my lab that beeps when its surrouding temperature is at 68 degrees Celcious. It is used to calibrate a special research oven which has a few tuning knobs which range from 1-10. I want to create a requirement that says the resistance knob must be in the range of 4.5 to 5.2 when the temperature in the oven registers 68 degrees Celcious.02br
02br
00Should I say:02br
02br
001. The resistence knob must be in the range of 4.5 to 5.2 when the temperature registers 68 degrees Celcious.02br
02br
00or 02br
02br
002. At 68 degrees Celcious, the resistence knob must be in the range of 4.5 to 5.2.02br
02br
00I prefer #2 but since the temperature of the oven is actually controlled the resistence knob, sentence #2 sounds like the temperature is settable by a temperature knob like a normal oven which obviously is not true on this special oven. Is my understanding correct?02br
02br
00Please advise. Thanks in advance0-
