Safety Function Check Mode (HOLD Function) After activating configuration, calibration, or service, Stratos Pro enters function check mode (HOLD). The current outputs respond in accordance with the configuration. Operations must not be carried out while Stratos Pro is in function check (HOLD) mode, as the system may behave unexpectedly and put users at risk.

Configuration Sensor Verification (TAG, GROUP) When Memosens sensors are calibrated in the lab, it is often useful and sometimes even mandatory that these sensors will be operated again at the same measuring points or at a defined group of measuring points. To ensure this, you can save the respective measuring point (TAG) or group of measuring points (GROUP) in the sensor.

Calibration Note: • All calibration procedures must be performed by trained person- nel. Incorrectly set parameters may go unnoticed, but change the measuring properties. • The response time of the sensor and temperature probe is considerably reduced when the sensor is first moved about in the buffer solution and then held still.

Sensoface (Sensocheck must have been activated during configuration.) The smiley in the display (Sensoface) alerts to sensor problems ( defective sensor, sensor wear, defective cable, maintenance request). The permitted calibration ranges and the conditions for a friendly, neutral, or sad Sensoface are summarized in the following table. Additional icons refer to the error cause.

FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Conformity with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 In their directive “Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations, 21 CFR Part 11, Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures“ the American health agency FDA (Food and Drug Administration) regulates the production and processing of electronic documents for pharmaceutical develop- ment and production.
Glossary Adaptive cal timer By issuing a Sensoface message, the adaptive (ACT) calibration timer reminds you to calibrate the sensor. The ACT interval is either read auto- matically from the sensor settings or can be specified manually. Stressing influences (temperature, measure- ment in extreme ranges) shorten the timer interval.
Page 161
Glossary Calibration Adjustment of the pH meter to the current sensor characteristics. The asymmetry poten- tial and slope are adjusted. Either a one- or two-point calibration can be carried out. With one-point calibration only the asymmetry potential (zero point) is adjusted. Calimatic Automatic buffer recognition.
Page 162
Glossary GainCheck Device self-test which runs automatically in the background at fixed intervals. The memo- ry and measured-value transfer are checked. You can also start GainCheck manually in the diagnostics menu. In that case, also a display test will be performed. ISFET adapter Adapter between ISFET sensor and trans- mitter.
Page 163
Glossary pH sensor A pH sensor consists of a glass and a refer- ence electrode. If they are combined in one body, they are referred to as combination electrode. When the sensor has an additional platinum electrode, the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) can be measured simultane- ously with the pH.
Page 164
Glossary Slope Is indicated in % of the theoretical slope (59.2 mV/pH at 25 °C). The sensor slope is different for each sensor and changes with age and wear. Transaction number for releasing an additional function. TTM, Time To Adaptive maintenance timer. The TTM in- Maintenance terval is either read automatically from the sensor settings or can be specified manually.
