Continuous mode
This is the most commonly used measuring mode. The
meter performs the measurement and calculates and
displays the result continuously. You can view the
calibrated parameter, calibrate the electrode, and save or
output the result during the measurement. After
measurement, press [Cancel] and then [Enter] to exit the
measuring mode.
Timed Reading mode
In this mode, the meter continuously measures the pH for
a specified period of time. For example, to measure pH
continuously for 30 minutes, select this mode and set the
time interval to 30. When measurement begins, the meter
continuously displays the results of measurements and
calculations. When the set time period ends, the meter
saves the measuring data. (If the USB interface is
connected to a PC, the meter also prints out the
measurement data). Then the meter begins the next
measurement automatically. To stop measurement, press
[Cancel] and then [Enter].
In this mode, you enter the desired time interval. The
default value for the time interval is 10 minutes. The
range is 1 to 99 minutes.
Auto-Lock Reading mode (Auto-Lock mode)
Auto-Lock mode requires that you set a condition as
described in ""To set a condition for Auto- Lock mode"
page 28. When measurement begins, the meter
continuously displays the results of measurements and
calculations until the measurements meet the preset
Auto- Lock conditions, at which point the measurement
ends.
