Xylem 6-Series Multiparameter - Manual (Page 107)

Sondes Section 2
YSI Incorporated Environmental Monitoring Systems Operations Manual 2-101
As noted above, the ISE3 PAR1 selection is used in a special instrument mated to a sensor for
Photosynthetically Active Radiation that is available from Endeco/YSI. See Section 9 for contact
information and Appendix K for a brief description of the PAR system for potential users.
A submenu similar to that below will appear if any of the Optic options (T, C, B, or O) is chosen as a port
for a particular optical sensor..
Any available optical probe can be installed in any optical port on YSI 6-series sondes. If a single port is
present (600 OMS V2-1, 6820V2-1, 6920V2-1), then the port will be designated “Optic T” in the software
even though the port is not physically labeled with a “T” on the bulkhead. The two optical ports in the
6600V2-2, 6600EDS V2-2, 6820V2-1. and 6920V2-2 are labeled “Optic T” and “Optic C”, both in the
software and on the bulkhead. Selection of either “Optic T” or “Optic C” in the software will produce
submenus that allow the proper optical sensor to be selected. The four optical ports in the 6600V2-4 are
labeled “Optic T”, “Optic C”, “Optic B”, and “Optic O”, both in the software and on the bulkhead.
Selection of any of the options in the software will produce submenus that allow the proper optical sensor
to be selected. Note, however, that only one probe of any type can be installed and activated in sondes with
multiple optical ports. For example, it is not possible to use chlorophyll probes in both Optic T and Optic
C ports of the 6600V2-2.
NOTE CAREFULLY: It is NOT possible to simultaneously activate BOTH the 6562 Rapid Pulse
polarographic dissolved oxygen sensor and the 6150 ROX Optical dissolved oxygen sensor. Activation of
either sensor will automatically deactivate the other selection. Thus, users of 6600V2-2, 6600EDS V2-2,
6820V2-1, and 6920V2-1 sondes CANNOT measure oxygen with both types of sensors.
NOTE: If you are using a previously purchased 6036 turbidity probe (discontinued on 1/1/02) with your
sonde, select the “(*) Turbidity-6026” option in the above menu.

From the Sonde Main menu select 8-Advanced to display the sensor calibration constants, additional setup
options, sensor coefficients and constants, and digital filtering options. The parameters listed depend on
both the sensors installed and the sensors enabled, therefore your screen may not be identical to those
shown below.
