Macro 900 Operation Manual V3

5. Connecting an MAP 2000/2100

The MAP 2000/2100 is designed to connect to the Macro 900 Meter using a
connecting cable. The cable features high-pressure metal connectors, which
incorporate several O-ring seals at the Probe end. Prior to first connection, the
seals must be lubricated using the silicone grease supplied.
O-rings
Apply a generous smear of grease to the O-rings where indicated above. Be
careful not to get any grease inside the connector near the gold contacts. A
small smear of grease should also be applied to the thread on the Probe to
allow easy tightening of the collar.
To connect the cable to the MAP 2000/2100, align the coloured dot on the MAP
2000/2100 with the ◄Palintest logo on the plug body, then press the plug into
the socket and tighten the retaining collar fully. DO NOT TWIST THE
CONNECTOR BODY WITH RESPECT TO THE PROBE. Once the MAP
2000/2100 has been connected to the cable, the Macro 900 Meter can be
connected.
Always ensure the Macro 900 Meter is switched off prior to connecting or
disconnecting an MAP 2000/2100. Align the ◄Palintest logo on the plug body
with the red on/off switch on the Macro 900 Meter, then press the plug into the
socket and tighten the retaining collar.
Once the MAP 2000/2100 is connected to the Macro 900 Meter, switch the
Meter on by pressing the red on/off switch. The Macro 900 Meter should detect
the Probe and automatically start displaying readings.

6. Taking Measurements

The MAP 2000/2100 includes a pH/ORP electrode, which is kept moist by a
storage cap. Remove the storage cap by pulling the red lanyard marked
'Remove Before Use / Replace After Use' straight down. Do not use a twisting
motion to remove or replace the cap as this can unscrew the electrode
from the Probe body. Rinse any salty deposits from the pH/ORP electrode
with fresh water.
Fit the protective Sleeve End Cap into the end of the Probe sleeve. Switch the
Macro 900 Meter on and immerse the MAP 2000/2100 in the sample water,
making sure that the water level covers the minimum immersion depth groove
halfway up the Probe sleeve.
