    When enabled, the DO%L calibration value is always 100% regardless of the altitude or barometric pressure of the location. This deviates from YSI’s traditional method of expressing DO% saturation where the % calibration value decreases with a decrease in barometric pressure, i.e.
  • Page 16: Last Digit Suppression (Lds)

    Example: 750/760 = 0.9868 x 100 = 98.68% calibration value when DO Local is disabled. When DO Local% is enabled, the Pro20/Pro20i corrects for barometric pressure for each DO measurement instead of during calibration. Example: Instrument #1 with DO Local% enabled: At 737 mmHg barometric pressure, roughly 841 ft above sea level, the instrument would calibrate to 100%.

    DISSOLVED OXYGEN The Pro20/Pro20i can be easily calibrated with the press of one key by enabling One Touch Cal in the System Setup menu and following the One Touch Calibration procedure.
  • Page 24 It is not necessary to calibrate in both % and mg/L or ppm. Calibrating in % will simultaneously calibrate mg/L and ppm and vice versa. YSI recommends calibrating dissolved oxygen in % for both ease and accuracy. ONE TOUCH CALIBRATION Perform this calibration procedure when One Touch Cal is enabled in the System Setup menu.
  • Page 25 Press and hold the Calibrate key for 3 seconds. Highlight % and press enter . The Pro20/Pro20i will display the current DO% and temperature readings along with the % calibration value. The % calibration value is based on the barometer reading.
  • Page 26 Press and hold the Calibrate key for 3 seconds. %Local will be automatically highlighted, press enter . The Pro20/Pro20i will display the current DO% and temperature readings along with the % calibration value. The % calibration value will always be 100% for DO Local%.
  • Page 27: Salinity Compensation Calibration

    See the Troubleshooting guide for possible solutions. SALINITY COMPENSATION CALIBRATION The Pro20/Pro20i uses a user inputted salinity value in ppt (parts per thousands) to compensate dissolved oxygen mg/L values. The salinity compensation value entered in the Pro20/Pro20i should be the salinity value of the water you are testing.

    zero. Hence, the amount of oxygen diffusing through the membrane is proportional to the absolute pressure of oxygen outside the membrane. If the oxygen pressure increases, more oxygen diffuses through the membrane and more current flows through the sensor. A lower pressure results in less current.
