3. Get the standard solution shown on the display.
4. Rinse the probe with deionized water. Blot dry with a lint-free cloth.
5. Put the probe in the standard solution until the temperature sensor is completely
submerged. Move the probe up or down or gently tap on the beaker to remove air
bubbles from the probe.
6. Push Read. The display will show "Stabilizing" and a progress bar as the reading
stabilizes. The display shows the value of the check standard and either Check
Standard Passed or Check Standard Failed.
7. If the display shows Check Standard Passed, the check standard measurement is
within the accepted limits set by the administrative user. Select Done to continue with
the sample measurement.
8. If the display shows Check Standard Failed, the measurement is outside of
accepted limits set by the administrative user and a recalibration is recommended. If
the acceptance criteria is set to Cal Expires on Failure: Yes, the display shows the
calibration icon and a question mark until the probe is recalibrated. To correct the
probe calibration and status indicator, calibrate the probe (refer to
Calibration
on page 3).
