very useful in determining the life efficiency of the electrode. These electrode
properties can be examined through its data in % Saturation and mg/L (ppm)
Concentration which is available in their Set Up menu respectively.

7.4.1

Viewing the electrode Slope Factor

This parameter lets you view and gives an indication of the probe’s efficiency.
The value displayed is the ratio of the actual value produced by the probe to
the theoretical value. The higher the number, the lower the mV output from
the probe. The ratio displays from 0.5 to 1.999.
From the % Saturation or Temperature Set Up menu,
1. Enter the Set Up menu & scroll by using the

p and q keys until the

meter displays the Electrode Properties menu “ ELE.3”

2. Press the HOLD/ENTER key to enter the menu and view the Slope Factor

of the electrode..

3. The display will momentarily shows “FACT” before displaying the slope

factor value.

7.4.2

Viewing the % Saturation Offset (Only available in % Saturation

or Temperature Set Up menu):
This parameter shows you the amount of the % Saturation Offset entered in
the other parameter “OFS” (refer to Section for instructions).
From Step 3 above,
4. Press the HOLD/ENTER key to enter the % Saturation Offset viewing

menu

5. The meter will display “OFS” momentarily before displaying the last offset

adjustment made.

7.4.3

Viewing the 0% Saturation mV value

This parameter show the sensor's mV output corresponding to 100%
Saturation. From Step 5 above,
6. Press the HOLD/ENTER key. The display will show "HI.mV" momentarily

before displaying the sensor's mV output with respect to 100% Saturation.

7.4.4

Viewing the 0% Saturation mV value

This parameter lets you view the sensor’s mV output corresponding to 0%
Saturation. From step 6 above.
