instrument serial number), and press Enter. A prompt will appear which will allow you to type in the
serial number of your sonde. This will make sure that any data that is collected is associated with a
particular sonde. Note that the selection 5-Circuit Board SN shows the serial number of the PCB that is

cannot change the Circuit Board SN. The 6-GLP filename and 7-SDI-12 address selections will be
explained in Section 2.9.5
