Setting up the instrument
If large quantities of the electrolyte gel are stuck to the probe
when removed from the storage cap, it is a sign that the gel is
spent.
A new storage cap is needed.
Clean off the pH probe before and after each measurement
with low concentration soap water followed by tap water
(water temperature should be below 40 °C). Dab dry with a
paper towel. Do not rub.
When using the BNC module, please note the application
information included with the external probe.
