Connecting a printer
A printer with an infrared interface can be connected to the infrared in-
terface for printing out reports.
Activate the infrared interface of the pH meter under
configuration/auxil/IR interface: (see Section 5.4)
No further transmission parameters need to be set.
Attention!
In order to guarantee a perfect transmission the distance between the
pH meter and the printer should be 80 cm at the maximum. The infra-
red interfaces must face each other directly. Never expose the infra-
red interface to direct sunlight.

Initial configuration
The pH meter is delivered with standard settings for the configuration. If
it should ever be necessary to reset the configuration of the instrument
to its original condition then this can be carried out by a re-initialization
of the instrument memory (see Section 8.3).
Before you start to make measurements please change the following
configuration settings. If you first want to make yourself familiar with the
operation of the pH meter then please read Sections 3.1 to 3.3. More
detailed explanations of the individual configuration settings are given
in Section 5.
