    Typical arrangements for the Tank assembly INSTALLATION Install the HI 9914 controller on a wall, indoors, in a dry area and not under direct sun light. Assure that liquids can not be sprayed or poured on it. Fix the controller at a proper height to easily reach the front panels and fix the 4 screws at the 4 corners.

    • If the matching pin is used, connect the matching pin terminal to the con- nector pin 2 located on the right panel. • Immerse the matching pin near the pH electrode. Minimal tank assembly: only the normal level sensor is used, the irriga- tion is made manually, regardless of the water composition or level.

    NORMAL OPERATION Before starting-up make sure the controller has been properly calibrated, When the HI 9914 controller is turned on, the meter performs a status and the pH and conductivity setpoints have been adjusted (see the check of the level sensors and provides the commands depending on the following pages).

    CONTROLLER SETTINGS ALARM CONDITIONS SETTING THE pH CONTROL When an alarm condition is reached, the ALARM LED turns ON and the To adjust the pH setpoint: alarm relay contact is closed (short between the COMMON and NO pins). • Press the SET button close to the pH display to read the setpoint value. All the pumps and the water nozzle are off.
