Calibration
C A U T I O N
Chemical exposure hazard. Obey laboratory safety procedures and wear all of the personal protective equipment appropriate to the chemicals that are handled. Refer to the current safety data sheets (MSDS/SDS) for safety protocols.
Calibrate the tester before initial use and when:
• Results drift
• Results are not accurate
Before the initial calibration and after a dry storage, soak the sensor for several minutes in the sample or tap water.
Calibrate
Items to collect: One auto-recognition calibration standard
1.
Set the power to on.
2.
Remove the cap from the sensor.
3.
Push to go to calibration mode.
The auto-recognition standard(s) the tester expects to measure shows on the bottom line.
4.
Rinse the sensor and cap with deionized water and blot dry.
5.
Pour the calibration standard shown into the cap to the fill line.
6.
Put the sensor fully into the cap.
7.
When the measurement is stable, push to save the calibration and go to continuous measurement mode. The measured value will flash 3 times and then stop.
Then, "END" shows on the display.
8.
Rinse the sensor and cap with deionized water and blot dry.

Troubleshooting
Message
"- - - -"
(top line)
Possible cause
The parameter value is not within the measurement range of the tester. Refer to
on page 2.
"- - - -"
(bottom line)
The temperature value is not within the operating temperature range of the tester or a temperature sensor failure occurred. Refer to
on page 2 for the operating temperature range.
Battery icon flashes The batteries have less than 10% power remaining.
Solution
Make sure that the value of the sample is within the measurement range of the tester. Gently clean the sensor. Refer to
Clean the sensor on page 8. Calibrate
as necessary.
Make sure that the sample temperature is within the operating temperature range of the tester. Contact technical support as necessary.
Note: The tester can still be used if a temperature sensor failure has occurred, but without automatic temperature compensation.
Replace all four batteries. Refer to
on page 5.
