KEYPAD DESCRIPTION
1) GLP/ : press to enter
GLP mode. In calibration mode press to edit
the date and time.
2) CAL CHECK: press to perform the validation of the meter, or press
and hold for three seconds to enter
calibration mode.
3) ZERO/CFM: to zero the meter prior to measurement, to confirm
edited values or to confirm factory calibration restore.
4) READ/ /TIMER: press to make a measurement, or press and hold
for three seconds to start a pre-programmed countdown prior to
measurement. In
GLP mode press to view the next screen.
5) ON/OFF: to turn the meter on and off.
6) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
7) Cuvette alignment indicator
8) Cuvette holder
1• Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF.
2• When the beeper sounds briefly and the
LCD displays dashes, the meter is ready.
The blinking “ZERO” indicates that the
instrument needs to be zeroed first.
3• Fill the cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted
sample, up to the mark, and replace the
cap.
4• Place the cuvette into the cuvette holder
and ensure that the notch on the cap is
positioned securely into the groove.
5• Press ZERO/CFM and the lamp, cuvette
and detector icons will appear on the
display, depending on the measurement
phase.
6• After a few seconds, the display will show
“-0.0-”
. The meter is now zeroed and
ready for measurement.
7• Remove the cuvette.
8• Add the content of one packet of HI 95761-0
Total Chlorine Low Range reagent. Replace
the cap and shake gently for 20 seconds.

seconds and just press READ/ /TIMER.
In both cases, the lamp, cuvette and
detector icons will appear on the display,
depending on the measurement phase.
11•At the end of measurement, the instrument

Cooling lamp:
The instrument waits for the
lamp to cool down.
Battery low:
The battery must be replaced
soon.
Dead battery:
This indicates that the battery
is dead and must be replaced. Once this
indication is displayed, normal operation of the
instrument will be interrupted. Change the
battery and restart the meter.
Under range:
A blinking “0.000” indicates that
the sample absorbs less light than the zero reference.
Check the procedure and make sure you use the
same cuvette for reference (zero) and measurement.
Over Range:
A flashing value of the maximum
concentration indicates an over range condition.
The concentration of the sample is beyond the
programmed range: dilute the sample and re-run
the test.
Standard Low:
The standard reading is less
than expected.
Standard High:
The standard reading is higher
than expected.
Light High:
There is too much light to perform
a measurement. Please check the preparation of
the zero cuvette.
Light Low:
There is not enough light to perform
a measurement. Please check the preparation of
the zero cuvette.
No Light:
The instrument cannot adjust the
light level. Please check that the sample does
not contain any debris.
Inverted cuvettes:
The sample and the zero
cuvettes are inverted.
Zero:
A zero reading was not taken. Follow
the instructions of the measurement procedure
for zeroing the meter.
