– Is the electrode connected?
– Is there a short circuit?
The electrode check is carried out when this command is started.
￭ Generator electrode:
– Is the electrode connected?
– Is the generator system defective?
– Is the resistance of the sample solution very high?
The electrode check is carried out continuously during the execution of
this command.
Temp. measurement
Type of temperature measurement.
Selection continuous | automatic | off
Default value automatic
continuous
A temperature sensor must be connected. The temperature is mea-
