MULTI-PARAMETER TRANSMITTER USER’S MANUAL Introduction The SHARK & SHARK multi-parameter transmitter is a microprocessor based transmitter capable of measuring one of the following parameters, pH, ORP, conductivi- ty or flow. When shipped from the factory, the Shark is not set to measure any one parameter. When the Shark is powered up for the first time, it will display the meter selection screen where the meter type must be selected.
