For a complete set of operating instructions, maintenace procedures, calibration procedures, and the FACTORY CAL reset procedure download the full
the PTBTx Ultrapen App Operation Manual and the PTBT2 Operation Manual from www.myronl.com.
1. Turn ON Ultrapen App: Tap Ultrapen icon on mobile device's home screen.
2. Turn ON PTBT2: Press and release the push button on PTBT2.
3. LED flashes rapidly: Dip PTBT2 in sample solution so sensor is totally
submerged.
4. LED flashes slowly: Swirl PTBT2 to remove bubbles, keep sensor submerged.
Avoid contact with sides/bottom of container. Measurement is ongoing.
5. LED turns solid ON then turns OFF: Measurement is complete.
PTBT2 FEATURES
1. PUSH BUTTON – Press to turn ON and select mode settings.
2. BATTERY CAP – Unscrew to access battery for replacement.
3. WIRELESS TRANSCEIVER WINDOW - Bluetooth antenna is located here.
4. LED INDICATOR LIGHT – Tells the user when to dip & swirl PTBT2 during
measurements and calibration.
5. pH SENSOR – Measures hydrogen ion concentration of solution.
6. pH SENSOR BULB – Measures test sample's hydrogen ion concentration.
7. SOAKER CAP – Contains pH sensor storage solution to maintain sensor
hydration. To remove, twist the soaker cap while pulling off using caution not
to spill the storage solution. To replace, fill the soaker cap half full with
storage solution. Twist the soaker cap while pushing back on using caution
as excess storage solution may squirt out.
NOTE: The formation of KCl crystals around the soaker cap is normal. These
crystals do not affect the sensor life, performance, or accuracy. ALWAYS rinse them off with clean water prior to a performing a test.
8. CAP STOP – DO NOT push the protective cap beyond the cap stop as sensor damage could occur.
9. SCOOP – Used to hold sample solution when dipping is not possible. To install, push the scoop onto the sensor while shifting side-to-side. To
remove, pull the scoop off while shifting side-to-side. Verify the pH sensor remained fully inserted into the PTBT2. If not, download the full PTBT2
Operation Manual from the Myron L
stream during measurement, avoiding bubbles.

NOTE: To unpair from a PTBTx, tap the red Unpair next to the PTBT2's name then select Disconnect.
II. MAKING MEASUREMENTS:
measurements.
CAUTION:
To measure solution at the extremes of the specified temperature range, allow the PTBT2 to equilibrate by submerging the
sensor in the sample solution for 1 minute prior to taking a measurement.
NOTE: When testing a vertical stream of sample, use the scoop. Recalibrate the PTBT2 using the scoop to retain accuracy.
1. Rinse the sensor by swirling it in clean water (preferably DI, RO, or purified water) patting it dry with a clean cloth or tissue.
2. Open the Ultrapen App.
3. Tap the Measurement in the Feature Navigation Bar. The screen will say, "Paired Ultrapen is Offline".
4. Press and release the push button to turn the PTBT2 ON.
