Salinity, pH or mV. The user can switch back and forth from all these displays by just pushing a single key. The model 6350M is also equipped with a non-volatile memory allowing the user to store 50 different sets of readings. This model...
6350M will also assign a site number for each set of readings to let the user an easy review of the data. This instrument is powered by six AAA-size alkaline batteries or a UL/CE approved AC adapter. The instrument also displays a "LO BAT"...
2.Wait for the instrument and probe to be completely dry before resuming operation. 3. If unsatisfactory results are gained after doing the above, notify your Jenco representative for possible repair or replacement (See WARRANTY). B. THE KEYPAD ↓ ↓...

3b. In pH mode this key will enable pH calibration. See CALIBRATION SET-UP. 4. The [ ∆ ] key. 4a. During pH readings (ONLY) this key will increment the temperature in the event the unit detects no temperature input. (see MANUAL TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION) 4b.
ALL data in the non-volatile memory. Data in all 50 sites will be erased completely. Do not use the erase function until all recorded data has been reviewed or transcribed/downloaded outside the model 6350M. ( SEE SAVING AND RECALLING DATA.) D. THE DISPLAY...
1. "LO BAT" -Low battery indicator. 2."RC"- to indicate that the unit is in recall mode and actively displaying saved data. 3. MAIN DISPLAY (pH, mV, Conductivity & Salinity) 4. "MAN" - used to indicate that a temperature sensor is not attached and the pH temperature compensation is manual.
F. REPLACING THE BATTERIES 1. Position the meter so that the bottom part of the meter is facing up . (Refer to figure 5.) Insert a coin in the side closure slot. Tilt the coin and thrust it upward to open the battery compartment and lift the closure up.
THE CELL CONSTANT IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FOR EACH CONDUCTIVITY PROBE. REFER TO CALIBRATION SET-UP FOR PROCEDURES. IV. MODEL 6350M MODES This instrument is designed to provide 6 distinct measurements and 2 special modes: 1. Temperature - current temperature of the solution which is always displayed.
Page 11
4.Conductivity (mS/uS) - a measurement of the conductive material in the solution with no regard to temperature. 5.Compensated conductivity (mS/uS)- also known as specific conductance which automatically adjusts to a calculated value which would have been read if the sample had been at T =25°C &...
For pH readings the "STAND" 12.00 annunciator will not blink if the unit is STAND calibrated, it is the same with the SLOPE annunciator. The "AUTO" will also be displayed STAND AUTO if a temperature sensor is available, 25.0 or "MAN" if no temperature sensor °C SLOPE is attached.
[∆] key while in any conductivity mode. You will be switching to the four ranges of the model 6350M then back to auto ranging again. During MANUAL RANGING the CONDUCTIVITY UNIT (mS & uS) will blink to signify you are in MANUAL RANGE.
[SLOPE] key for 5 sec. The 6350M will acknowledge by displaying “7.00” (7.00,4.01 & 10.01) or “6.86” (6.86,4.00 & 9.18) and the text “buf” at the secondary display then returns to normal pH operation.

2. Place the probe in a standard 7.00 buffer solution (7.00 or 6.86 buffer depending on what model you are using). Press the [STAND] key. STAND 25.0 3. The "STAND" annunciator will °C stop flashing and stay ON. The display will change to the pH value of the current temperature (if a temperature probe is available the "AUTO"...
"WAIT" annunciator will blink) then it will lock the value of the display, if during stabilization period and the reading changes more than 0.01 pH then this wait time (about 10 seconds) will restart (In this case : A. you can change the solution. B. just abort by pressing the [MODE] key.
1. After the power-on diagnostics, go to any conductivity mode and press the [∇] and [MODE] keys simultaneously, the CAL annunciator will appear on the lower left of the display. The large portion will display 1.91 % or a value set previously using this procedure.
The old Cell Constant will be retained and the unit will return to normal operation. VIII. SAVING AND RECALLING DATA The Model 6350M is equipped with a non-volatile memory than can store up to 50 different sets of readings. Non-volatile memory will be retained even if power is lost.
OPERATION for more information. 1. Press the [MODE] key repeatedly until Recall mode ("rcl" see MODEL 6350M modes) is displayed on the screen along with the site number on lower right corner. 2. Press the [ENTER] key to display the last set of data that was saved.
C. SOFTWARE A demo program written in Visual Basic® 6.0 and the source are included in the accompanying disk. Read the “Model 6350M RS232 protocol.doc” to understand the procedure used inside the demo program.
