16.1 Sensor setup
“Sensor type” setup is determined by the sensor to be connected to the instrument. Select one of
the following three sensor types:
pH: Only pH is measured.
ORP: OnlyORPismeasured.UsethissettingfortheORPmeasurementonthebasis
of a glass electrode. For the measurement on the basis of a reference electrode,
selectpH+ORPandthenselectORPin[Measurement].
pH+ORP: BothpHandORParemeasuredsimultaneously.ThissetupalsoallowsrHtobe
measured. ORP measurement is based on a reference electrode

When this setting is “Enable,” sensors are not performing measurement or automatic update
parameters are not being updated, thus sensors can be disconnected safely.
