menu and make a measurement on the calibration plate.
The measured conductance should be close to 240 mmol

. Please note that the first 2-3 measurements after the
sensors have not been used for a while will be significantly

surements after re-wetting the filter paper will also be inac-
curate due to thermal disequilibrium.
