5.3 Autostable Setup
The autostable feature indicates when readings are stable by emitting a single beep and
displaying an asterisk (*) to the right of the dissolved oxygen reading. The instrument uses
criteria that you input to determine what a stable reading is. You select the maximum percent of
change that may occur during a selected time duration. The default values are 10 seconds and
0.4% variation. The instrument will display an asterisk (*) only when these criteria are met.
