Page 27: Chapter 4 - Calibration Mode
Chapter 4 - CALIBRATION MODE HI9828 HI9828 HI9828 HI9828 HI9828 allows to perform six different types of calibration, one for each pa- rameter, and a quick single-point procedure for some of them. Calibration data are stored in the non volatile memory of the probe, so that the same probe can be used with different meters without needing new calibration. - Page 28 • When the measure is stable, “Ready” is shown. Press <Confirm> to store calibration data. • The messages “Storing data on probe, please wait...” and “Updating GLP data, please wait ...” appear.

Page 29: Ph Calibration
4.2 pH CALIBRATION It is recommended to calibrate the meter often for pH readings, especially if high accuracy is required. When the pH calibration is selected, the display shows two options: “Calibrate pH” and “Clear old calibration”. If “Calibrate pH” is selected, the user can perform a new calibration at 1, 2 or 3 points with standard buffers (pH 4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01), or a single calibration with custom buffer. - Page 30 • Press <Confirm> to accept the calibration point or <Buffer> to select an- other buffer using the arrow keys. • After the first calibration point is confirmed, immerse the probe in the second buffer solution and stir gently. • When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer, the display shows the “Ready”...

Page 32: Dissolved Oxygen Calibration
4.3 DISSOLVED OXYGEN CALIBRATION If the DO % saturation range is calibrated, the DO concentration range will also be calibrated, and vice versa. The DO % saturation value is referred to the DO concentration in air (100%). For this reason it is recommended to calibrate the probe near the area where the measurements will be taken. -

Chapter 5 - GPS MENU (optional) HI9828 model featuring GPS (Global Positioning System) is provided with a built-in 12 channel receiver and antenna to calculate meter position and track locations along with measurement data. The GPS unit tracks locations using satellites, with a position accuracy of 10 meters (30 ft). - Page 39 Press <Info> to view the GPS coordinates of the selected location; latitude and longitude. Press <Delete> to cancel the selected location. Note Note Note Note Note If the location is associated to an exist- ing lot, the meter will not allow to can- cel it.
- Page 40 Press <New> to add a new location to the existing list, then choose one of the two available options: “Current position to location” or “Add location manually”. In the first case the meter asks to enter the location ID only, while for manual addition also the latitude and longitude information has to be entered.

Page 41: Chapter 6 - Logging Mode
Chapter 6 - LOGGING MODE HI9828 HI9828 HI9828 can store up to 60,000 samples in 100 different lots, if the GPS unit is HI9828 HI9828 not enabled (if available). If readings are stored also using the GPS feature, the maximum number of samples is 45,000. In both cases, when using remarks, the maximum number of stored measurements decreases. - Page 42 • Then the “Add remark?” window will appear. If <Yes> is pressed and a remark list already exists, the user can select the desired note or press <New> to insert a new remark in the displayed text box. • If the GPS is enabled, the meter will ask if a location should be associated with the read- ings.
