5.7.1 Establishing a sensor-sensor link
Requirements for a
sensor-sensor link
The following requirements have to be met for a sensor-sensor link:
 Hardware
– A sensor for which an influence quantity can be corrected
(e.g. FDO
®
700 IQ, TriOxmatic
®
700 IQ) is in the IQ S ENSOR N ET
system.
– A sensor that measures the influence quantity (e.g. TetraCon
®
700 IQ) is in the IQ S ENSOR N ET system.
 Software
– The software of the sensor with correction function (e.g. FDO
®
700 IQ) supports the function, Sensor-sensor link.
– The software of the sensor measuring the influence quantity (e.g.
TetraCon
®
700 IQ) supports the function, Sensor-sensor link.
 Sensor settings
– The correction function is enabled in the setting menu for the
sensor with correction function (e.g. FDO
®
700 IQ).
– The automatic (dynamic) correction is enabled in the setting
menu for the sensor with correction function (e.g. FDO
®
700 IQ).
– A sensor measures the influence quantity and displays it with the
unit which is used for manual input in the menu of the sensor with
correction function
(e.g. TetraCon
®
700 IQ measures the salinity in mg/L).
– The manually entered value for the static correction is set to the
mean value of the influence quantity (e.g. salinity value) of the
test sample.
If no measured value for the influence quantity is available, the
correction is made with the value that was manually entered
(static correction).
