Installing the 3200P pH Meter
Open the meter kit package case. Remove the pH Meter,
multifunction electrode holder, and other parts.
The sockets for the pH electrode and ATC probe are on the
back panel of the meter. Insert the connectors of the pH
electrode and ATC probe (5190- 3998) into their respective
sockets. See Figure 6 on page 13. Run the electrode cables
along the electrode holder as shown in Figure 2 on page 8.

Installing the Power Adaptor
The universal power adapter that is included with the meter
is the only power adapter recommended for use with this
unit.
The external electrical power adapter is rated at 100 to
240 VAC, 1 A, 50/60 Hz.
This power adaptor provides a plug converter which
supports several kinds of plugs. Choose the appropriate
power plug. Connect the output plug of the power adapter to
the power input on the meter. A click will be heard when
the plug is properly engaged.

Installing the Ground Line
The meter ships with an optional ground line. During use, if
another device (such as a constant temperature bath) causes
electrical interference and an unstable reading, install the
ground line. Connect one terminal of the ground line to the
meter ground socket ( ) and the other terminal to the
interference source.
Installing the Electrochemical Data Collecting Software
The optional G4390A software provides communications
between the meter and a computer. To input data to a
computer, install the Electrochemical Data Collecting
Software on a computer. Connect the computer to the meter
with a USB cable. See the G4390A software documentation
for more information.
If not using the G4390A software, Agilent provides
downloadable data printing software on the Agilent
Customer Portal (see “Agilent Customer Portal ” on
page 15). To use this software, download it from the portal
and install it. Then connect the meter to the PC using the
USB cable. Refer to the data printing software
documentation for more information
