Step Range
Set the range over which the stability of a measured value is checked. If variations of a measured
value over the stabilization time are within this setpoint, the measured value is judged to have
stabilized.
Stabilization time
This is the time over which the stability of a pH value is monitored during calibration. When
variations of the pH value are within a value set in Step Range over this stabilization time set
here, the value is regarded as being stable. If the pH value does not stabilize within 10 minutes,
calibration is aborted.

Clear table?
If you select “Yes” and press “Yes” when prompted to clear the table, the contents of the buffer

Check values?
If you select “Yes,” a value check starts. When the check ends, the results will be displayed on
thescreen.Whentheresultsarenormal,the“Noerror”messageappears.Incaseofanerror,
error information is displayed.
l Zero/Slope/ITP
You can enter Zero (aspot), Slope (sensitivity), and ITP values directly in the screen displayed.
These data can be obtained from the manufacturer of the probe, by the users laboratory, etc.
NOTE
It is not necessary to enter this data. In most cases, as the FLXA21 automatically does this while
performing calibration, the feature is used in the case of special electrode systems or where
calibration in the process environment is not possible. See Chapter 17.
