Concentration calibration with up to 5 standards

Immerse electrode

in first standard

Start the

calibration com-

mand

Measure or enter

the calibration tem-

perature

If a temperature sensor is connected then the

temperature will be measured. Otherwise a query

will appear and the temperature must be entered

manually.

Message

A message appears with instructions for the first

standard. Start the measurement with [OK].

(Stir and/or

pause before

measurement)

The solution is stirred before the measurement.

Pause will be allowed to elapse before the meas-

urement.

(Switch on stirrer) The stirrer will be switched on if Stir solution

during measurement is activated.

Measure

standard

The potential of the standard is measured.

(Switch off stirrer) The stirrer will be switched off if the measured

value has been accepted and if Stir solution

during measurement is activated.

Calculate calibra-

tion data

The calibration data, i.e. the slope, electrode zero

point E(0) and the blank concentration c(blank) are

calculated, the limits checked and, if necessary,

an appropriate message displayed. The calibration

data will be added to the sensor data for the par-

ticular sensor.

Optional steps are shown in brackets.

Repeat for

each standard
