CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
The meter default function are following :
*The display unit is set to pH.
*
The temperature unit is set to .℃
*
Manual ATC ( without connect the ATC probe )
*
Auto power off.
*The sampling time of data logger function is

Fig. 2
If the meter is first time to connect
the pH electrode, it should make the
calibration before operation, the
calibration procedures refer to
chapter 4-4, page 9.

4-1 pH measurement ( manual Temp. compensation )
1)Power on the meter by pressing " Power Button "
( 3-2, Fig. 1 ) once.
2)
Prepare the pH Electrode ( optional ), install the
" Probe Plug " ( 4-1, Fig. 2 ) into the " pH Socket/BNC
Socket " ( 3-14, Fig. 1 ).
3)Adjust the manual Temp. value same as the
solution's temperature exactly, the procedures
refer chapter 8-8, page 25.
4)
Hold the " Electrode Handle " ( 4-2, Fig. 2 ) by hand
and let the " Sensing head " ( 4-3, Fig. 2 ) immersed
wholly into the measured solution and little shake the
electrode.
5)The main display will show the pH value, the
bottom display will show the setting manual Temp.
value.
4-2 pH measurement ( ATC , automatic Temperature )
1)All the procedures are same as
5-1 pH measurement ( manual Temp. compensation)
but should prepare one temperature probe ( optional,
TP-07 ), insert the TP-07's plug into the " Temp. Socket "
( 3-13, Fig. 1 ), immerse the sensing head of temperature
probe ( TP-07 ) into the measurement solution.
2)The main display will show the pH value, the bottom
display will show the sensing Temp. value of the
measured solution ( measured from ATC probe, TP-07 ).
