8. Error messages (Error code) Messages Reason Dispositions 1. Please replace by new buffers. Asy (Zero-point) exceeds 2. Maintain the electrode or Error1 upper/lower limitation change a new electrode, and make another calibration. 1. Please replace by new buffers. Slope exceeds upper/lower 2.
9. Maintenance Generally speaking, under normal operation, the transmitter needs no maintenance except regular cleaning and calibration of the electrode to ensure accurate and stable measurement and system operation. The cleaning cycle for the electrode depends on the pollution degree of the measurement sample.
