        Where did you measure with your external meter?
        What kind of external meter is it?
        Where is the bed sensor?
        What type of bed is it?

        5c isn't too far off considering all the potential variables at play. I think your temperatures are actually rather accurate.

          Agreed with Phaedrux - being only 5C different is super accurate for the involved setup. Heck, even the thermistor by itself (assuming you use a thermistor) isn't normally that accurate. A lot of people use cheap IR meters for verifying bed temperature without being aware of all the various adjustments that have to be made to the temperature reading in order to get something even half way accurate.
          To sum it up, don't fuss over actual temperature. If you find that 60 is too cold for your print, crank it up and don't get hung up on the actual reading or requested temperatures.
          BTW, if you were to get an accurate reading of temperature all over your bed and not just at one point, you are likely to tear out your hair if you are concerned about 5C .....
