6.2 Electrode Offset (OFS) sub-function
The electrode offset sub-function is only available if the transmitter is configured for pH measuring. Use this sub-function to set an offset that corrects the readings without removing the electrode from the control system. The setting range is ± 120 mV.
The transmitter will add or subtract the offset value from the measuring pH and display the corrected value. However, if you need to offset the value beyond the average offset you would expect in your application type, consider a full calibration or even electrode replacement.
1. Take a sample from the system. Record the controller’s pH reading at the time you take the sample.
2. Measure the pH value of your sample using a calibrated pH tester, hand-held meter, or bench meter. Record the correct pH value.
3. Select the “OFS” sub-function, and then press the ENT key.

3. Selecting relay function: press the or key to select the desired relay function (“LO”= low or “HI”= high). Press the ENT key to confirm your selection.
Note: This parameter lets you choose the relay function. Select “LO” to activate the relay when the pH/ORP value undershoots the set point; select “HI” to activate the relay when the value overshoots the set point. SP1 and SP2 can be selected as “Lo/Lo”, “Lo/Hi”, “Hi/Lo”, or “Hi/Hi”.
4. Setting a hysteresis value: press the or key to select the desired hysteresis (setting range: 0.1 to 1.0 pH, 10 to 100mV or 1 to 10%) for set point 1 (set point 2). Press the ENT key to confirm your setting.
Note: Hysteresis prevents rapid contact switching if your value is fluctuating near the set point. Please refer to Appendix 3 for a graphical representation of the hysteresis.
Example: You have set your high set point at pH 10.0 and your hysteresis value at pH 0.5. If your measured value overshoots pH 10.0, the controller’s relay activates. The actions of the external device will cause the solution’s pH to drop. The relay will deactivate, when the pH value drops below 9.5 pH.
