ALTITUDE COMPENSATION
Press the FUNCTION key twice and “F1” will be
displayed.
Use the UP and the DOWN keys to set the
altitude between 1 and 1900 m, in steps of
100 m (1 meter = 3.28 feet).
Altitude affects D.O. concentration decreasing
its value. The following table reports the maxi-
mum oxygen solubility at various temperatures
and altitudes.

SALINITY COMPENSATION
Press the FUNCTION key until “F2” will be
displayed.
Use the UP and DOWN keys to set the salinity
between 0 and 40 g/l.
Salinity affects D.O. concentration decreasing

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
The D.O. probe has a built-in sensor for
temperature so that the D.O. readings are
automatically compensated for temperature
effects.
