Measuring the pH value
AutoRead AR
(Drift control)
The AutoRead function (drift control) checks the stability of the mea-
surement signal. The stability has a considerable impact on the repro-
ducibility of the measured values.
For identical measurement conditions, the following criteria apply:
1
Perform the preparatory activities according to section 4.2.1.
2
Immerse the pH electrode in the test sample.
3
Press the <
▲> <▼> keys until pH appears in the status display.
The pH value appears on the display.

When measuring without a connected temperature sensor:
Options:
z Determine the current temperature using a thermometer
and, while keeping the
ter this temperature value with <
▲> <▼>.
z TP display indicator not displayed, socket for the second
probe is free:
Connect the second probe (Oxi or Cond) and immerse it in
the same sample. TP flashes, the temperature is automati-
cally measured using the second probe.
