Product overview
The LINK2SC software function enables optimum interaction of the process measuring equipment
and the photometer in the laboratory. It enables direct measurement correction of the online sc probe
via a photometer operating under laboratory conditions (refer to Introduction to matrix correction
on page 4). LINK2SC also enables laboratory control measurement. Measurement data is
transferred from the sc probe to the photometer, where it is then archived together with the
photometric reference data.
One or more online measurement values are used to create a job on the sc controller; this job is
transferred to the photometer via a local network connection or via SD memory card and USB
adapter. A job is an XML file containing measurement values and additional controller and probe
information.
The water probe drawn at the same time as this is analyzed in the laboratory in line with the same
parameters.
In the photometer, the photometric measured value is assigned to the probe value in the job. If the
job is then sent back to the sc controller, the probe is corrected automatically.
Data transfer is either via SD memory card or local network (LAN)1.

Introduction to matrix correction
There are various options available for sc probes to correct the probe value by means of laboratory
values (as a reference value).
This example uses the AN-ISE sc probe, for which the sample laboratory value can be entered as
either nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) or ammonium nitrogen (NH4-N). This laboratory value corrects the
value measured by the probe. For precise information, please refer to the calibration/matrix
correction chapter of the AN-ISE sc user manual.
LINK2SC supports matrix correction 1 and 2 and makes an independent decision as to which of the
two correction types is to be used for the application. The comparison measurements should be
taken on different days and at different times in order to record a maximum number of changes in
concentration. The following table describes the two correction types in more detail.

LINK2SC Correction Application
CREATE JOB MATRIX1 MATRIX1 is the most commonly used correction type and is the
NEW MEASUREMENT MATRIX2 MATRIX2 correction is recommended for dynamic processes with a large
recommended first step. MATRIX1 performs a single-point matrix
correction for ammonium and/or nitrate; this is done either with or without
compensation electrode correction (potassium and/or chloride), though
"without" is sufficient in most cases. Compensation electrode correction is
only necessary if a higher level of accuracy is required. With a MATRIX1,
a sample must be taken when the correction is triggered and analyzed in
the laboratory. MATRIX1 is activated when the laboratory value is
entered.
fluctuation of nitrate/ammonium over at least half a decade2. With a
MATRIX2, a sample must be taken for both points (a high and a low
concentration) when the correction is triggered and analyzed in the
laboratory. MATRIX2 is activated when the laboratory value is entered.
Installation
LAN
Configure the photometer IP address on the sc1000 controller3. Also observe the instructions in the
user manuals for the photometer and the sc controller.
SD memory card
The sc controller has an SD memory card slot.
The SD memory card is used to:
• Save log files from all instruments.
• Update the sc controller software.
• Restore settings without network access.
• Perform the LINK2SC process.
The SD memory card must be inserted in a USB adapter in order to connect to the photometer.

a. Select LINK2SC from the sc controller menu.
b. Select CREATE JOB from the LINK2SC menu.
c. Select the SENSOR NAME from the create job menu.
d. Select the PARAMETER of the job file from the sensor menu.
e. As soon as the parameter has been selected, take a comparison sample for the laboratory
measurement.
f. Use JOB->LAB to transfer the job file from the job status menu to the laboratory. (SD memory

b. Select JOB LIST from the LINK2SC menu.
c. Select the corresponding job from the list.
d. Select NEW MEASUREMENT.
e. Select the PARAMETER for the new measurement.
f. Take a comparison sample for the laboratory measurement.
g. Use JOB->LAB to transfer the job file from the job status menu to the laboratory. (SD memory
card must be inserted in the sc controller if this is being used.)

Présentation du produit
La fonction logicielle LINK2SC optimise l'interaction entre l'instrument de mesure de processus et le
photomètre dans le laboratoire. Elle permet une correction de mesure directe du capteur scen ligne
via un photomètre utilisé dans des conditions de laboratoire (voir la Introduction à la correction de
matrice à la page 10). LINK2SC permet également d'effectuer des mesures de contrôle de
laboratoire. Les mesures sont transférées du capteursc au photomètre, où elles sont archivées avec
les données de référence photométriques.
Une ou plusieurs mesures en ligne sont utilisées pour créer une tâche sur le transmetteursc, laquelle
est transférée au photomètre via une connexion réseau local ou via une carte mémoire SD et un
adaptateur USB. Une tâche est un fichier XML qui contient les mesures ainsi que des informations
supplémentaires sur le capteur et le transmetteur.
L'échantillon d'eau prélevé simultanément est analysé dans le laboratoire selon les mêmes
paramètres.
Dans le photomètre, la valeur photométrique mesurée est assignée à la valeur du capteur dans la
tâche. Si la tâche est renvoyée au transmetteursc, le capteur est corrigé automatiquement
Le transfert des données s'effectue via une carte mémoire SD ou le réseau local (LAN)1.
