3. Calibration Mode For All Meters 3.1 About Calibration The 600 series meters are factory calibrated and allows you to measure pH/mV/ion/conductivity/resistivity/TDS/salinity/DO(%)/DO(mg/L) respective to the model(s) you have purchased. Calibrate to all measurement ranges to ensure the highest accuracy in any given measurement range. This should be done before you make measurements for the first time and also each time a new electrode is attached to the meter or when you suspect that the meter/electrode is out of calibration.
Page 26
It is recommended that you perform at least a 2-Point Calibration using standard buffers that adequately cover the expected measurement range, prior to measurement. For Ion Connect the ISE to the BNC connector of the meter. Remove plastic protective cap of ISE. Briefly rinse the electrode with clean water to remove any residues.
All new calibration values will automatically override the existing data. It is recommended to calibrate the meter periodically and or if it is suspected to be inaccurate. Always rinse the probe with either DI water or rinse solution before and after each calibration/sample measurement.

4.2.3 Stable reading indicator You can configure the meter so that LCD displays a ‘Stable’ indicator when the reading does not vary for 2 consecutive seconds. The amount of variations allowed can be set at ‘Slow’, ‘Medium’ or ‘Fast’. 4.2.4 Holding a reading In some situations, you may want to freeze (hold) the measured reading in the LCD for a delayed observation.
4.4 Alarm set point (For pH/conductivity/DO) You can set the meter to display an alarm when the pH/ conductivity/ salinity/ resistivity/ TDS/ DO (%)/ DO (mg/L) reading goes higher or lower than predefined set points. Refer to ‘Setup’ pages of respective modes to set alarm points for pH, conductivity and DO.
5.2.1 Logging data automatically in the meter’s memory 1. Make sure that the Print mode is set to ‘data logging mode’ in the System Setup. You can also specify the time interval for each transfer. From measurement mode, press PRIN (F3) to start saving data automatically in meter’s memory.
5.2.4 Transferring stored data to the Computer (CyberComm) through IrDA 1. Make sure the CyberComm 600 application is up and running (Refer to the manual in the software packaging to install). 2. Make sure your meter’s IrDA port is facing the IrDA port of the computer. 3.
Transfer Stored data to CyberComm 5.2.5 Transferring stored data to a PC not equipped with infrared receiver. If your PC doesn’t come with a built-in infrared receiver, you can use an RS 232C Adapter (sold separately) that connects directly to your PC using a specially-designed 9-pin plug.
5.2.6 Transferring stored data to a PC using an USB/ irDA Dongle. You can purchase an USB/ irDA dongle 01X447601 (see accessories page at the back of this manual) and transfer data from your meter using the USB port.

Since the DO in the sample is consumed by the cathode it is essential that a new sample must flow past the membrane of the probe to prevent the occurrence of false readings. The probe uses very little oxygen for its measurement.
2. Hold the probe under hot running water and brush away the white oxide on the cylindrical anode with a stiff plastic brush – do not use metal cleaning material. 3. If the cathode has any deposits, remove them with a light scouring powder.
10. Using the installation tool, screw the membrane lock back into the cap. Tighten the lock firmly over the membrane and O-ring, but do not over tighten. 11. Inspect the membrane for wrinkles. If wrinkles exist, remove the membrane and repeat steps 8 – 11. 12.
