8.1 Adjustment Mode When using a brand-new sensor, please calibrate in Adjustment Mode. By setting the adjustment value, calibrates ORP value indicated on the AER-101-ORP to read 260 mV (at 20 ) when immersing the ORP Combined Electrode Sensor in the standard solution (Quinhydrone potential difference 260 mV).
When calibrating periodically, please calibrate in Span sensitivity correction mode. By setting the Span sensitivity correction value in percentage, calibrates ORP value indicated on the AER-101-ORP to read 260 mV (at 20 ) when immersing the ORP Combined Electrode Sensor in the standard solution (Quinhydrone potential difference 260 mV).
8.3 Transmission Output Adjustment Mode Fine adjustment of Transmission output is performed. This ORP meter is adjusted at the factory, however, differences may occur between the indication value of the connected equipment (recorders, etc.) and output value of this instrument. In this case, perform Transmission output Zero adjustment and Span adjustment.

9.4 Cleansing Output (Cleansing output) is selected in any of [EVT1 to EVT4 type (pp. 23, 29, 35, 41)], the unit will enter Cleansing Output mode. An EVT output (for which the cleansing output is selected) will turn ON during the configured cleansing time.
9.5 Manual Cleansing Mode By pressing the keys simultaneously for 3 seconds, the units enters Manual cleansing mode. In Manual cleansing mode, cleansing action is performed using “Cleansing time” and “Restore time after cleansing”. After cleansing action is complete, the unit automatically reverts to Cleansing Output mode.
9.6 ORP Input Error Alarm ORP input error alarm is used for detecting actuator trouble. Even if ORP input error alarm time has elapsed, and if ORP input does not become higher than ORP input error alarm span, the unit assumes that actuator trouble has occurred, and writes Status flag 2.
9.7 Cycle Automatic Variable Function If deviation between EVT value and measured value enters EVT cycle variable range, the proportional cycle will be automatically extended in accordance with the deviation. Proportional action OFF time will be extended, and ON / OFF ratio will be adjusted. However, if EVT cycle extended time is set to 0 (zero), this function will be disabled.
