INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the feature-packed P
ool
P
ro
™, one of the
Myron L Company’s latest in an increasing line of instruments utilizing
advanced microprocessor-based circuitry and SMT manufacturing
processes. This circuitry makes the instrument extremely accurate,
reliable and very easy to use.
The P
ool
P
ro
measures conductivity, Mineral/SALT (Sodium Chloride/
NaCl), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), pH, ORP/Redox and Temperature
in one simple to use instrument. Model PS6si has been redesigned to
include free chlorine measurements, an LSI & Hardness Calculator for
water balance analysis, and
Bluetooth® data transfer with the bluDock™
option. Additional features include a clock with time and date, a memory
of up to 100 locations with time and date stamp, the ability of the user
to adjust the timeout “Auto OFF”, and enhanced performance. See
Features and Specifications on pages 2 & 3.
The most exciting new feature is data logging with the ability to download
the memory or stored test data wirelessly with its corresponding time, date
and instrument name. This feature allows the user to create spreadsheets
and graphs with ease, and quickly and accurately manipulate data more
effectively. The optional bluDock™ and accompanying U2CI software is
compatible with most computers using either Microsoft Windows XP™,
Vista™ or 7™, or Macintosh OSX™. The data may be imported into a
variety of spreadsheet formats like Microsoft Excel CSV™.
Please Note: Although the Myron L Company has performed extensive
testing, we cannot guarantee compatibility of all applications and formats.
We suggest testing your application and format for compatibility before
relying on it.
For your convenience, a brief set of instructions is provided on the
bottom side of your P
ool

.
Special note.....Conductivity, Mineral/Salt, and TDS require mathematical
correction to 25°C values (ref. Temperature Compensation, pg. 33). On
the left of the P
ool
P
ro
’s liquid crystal display is shown an indicator of the
salt solution characteristic used to model temperature compensation of
conductivity and its TDS conversion. The indicator may be KCl, NaCl, or
442™. Selection affects the temperature correction of conductivity, and
the calculation of TDS from compensated conductivity (ref. Conductivity
Conversion to Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), pg. 36). The selection can
affect the reported conductivity of hot or cold solutions, and will change
the reported TDS of a solution. Generally, using KCl for conductivity,
NaCl for Mineral/Salt, and 442 for TDS will reflect present industry
practice for standardization. This is how your instrument, as shipped
from the factory, is set to operate.
