1. INTRODUCTION Automatically records up to 16,000 (!) data points in the field along with time and date. These can later be downloaded to a computer via the meter’s RS232 port and the results viewed instantly on software which comes with the unit. The software also enables real time data logging directly from the meter to the computer.

3. MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES: See page 4 for button locations. Factory Preset Meter Defaults: Conductivity (uS, mS), °C, Temperature Compensation (ATC) Factor of 2% per °C, Auto Range, Auto Power Off, and 2Second Data Logger Sampling Time. To change default settings, see "ADVANCED ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES" on page 6. 3-A. General Measurement Insert the PROBE PLUG (17) into the PROBE INPUT (12) and turn the meter on pressing the POWER (2) button.
3-D. Maximum / Minimum To record the maximum and minimum readings: Press the REC (4) button once. "REC" appears on the LCD. Press the REC (4) button again. "MAX", "REC" and the maximum measurement appear on the LCD. Press the REC (4) button again. "REC Min" and the minimum measurement appear on the LCD. To exit this function, press and hold the REC (4) button for at least 2 seconds. The display reverts to the current reading. 3-E.
4-A. Check Remaining Number of Data Points Press the SET (8) button at least 2 seconds until the lower display shows: "XXXXX" is the number of free data points. 4-B. Clear Memory XXXXX 107 Memory Space Clear Memory Esc:N Enter:Y Press the SET (8) button as needed to reach the "clear memory" screen. The number of saved data points is displayed. To delete saved data from memory, press the ENTER (4) button once, then press the ENTER (4) button again to confirm. The display shows: "0 Ok ESC:Quit".
4-F. Temperature Unit Default Setting Press the SET (8) button as needed to reach the "temp. unit" 1=°F screen. 0=°C Use the ▲ (5) and ▼ (6) buttons to switch between °F and °C. Press the ENTER (4) button. Press the SET (8) button to advance to the next option, or press the ESC (3) button to exit. 4-G. Temperature Compensation Factor (ATC) Default Setting The ATC Factor is adjustable between 0 to 5.0% per °C. Temp. Comp. ^, v SEND(→) Press the SET (8) button as needed to reach the "Temp. Comp.

Prepare a 1.413 µS calibration solution, or 1=Conductivity Calibration any standard conductivity solution. 0=Temp. Calibration Press the POWER (2) button to turn the meter on. Select the auto range mode, see item 3-B, page 5. Immerse the SENSOR HEAD (18) into the solution. Press both the REC (4) and HOLD (3) buttons at the same time. Release the buttons when "0:Temp.,1:CD" is displayed.
