The conductivity value is one of the most important parameters of a soft water aquarium
for the survival of sh and plants. This value is usually expressed in µs/cm (if the value
exceeds 10,000 µs/cm, it is expressed in mS/cm).
Aquatronica’s Low-Range Conductivity Interface connects an Aquatronica conductivity
probe to the “Aquarium Controller” system to measure and control the conductivity in
aquariums.
Pack contents
You will nd:
One low conductivity probe connection interface.•
One BUS cable for connecting the interface to the power unit•
One bag of accessories containing: 1 xing bracket – 1 kit of cable diameter adaptor •
1 guard – 2 xing screws
English
Connection to “Aquarium Controller” system
1. Connect the low conductivity probe’s connector to the interface (ACQ210N-MS).
2. Connect the ACQ210N-MS interface to the power unit (or HUB) using the provided
BUS cable.
NOTE: Insert the correct end of the connector into the power unit; inserting it in
the other direction can seriously damage the equipment.

Thanks to the special shape of the box and xing bracket, the interface can
be tted with others simply and very quickly, as seen below.

After connection, the control unit will display a Plug-In
screen (Fig. 1), where a name can be assigned to the
connected sensor.
It may take several seconds for the control unit to
recognize the connected interface.
NOTE: The sensor’s name can be changed using
the control unit’s keypad.
If more than one of these sensors is connected, the user
may assign different names for each one to facilitate
menu navigation.
Displaying the read value
After the probe has been connected through the ap-
propriate interface, the values read by the probe will
be displayed on the main screen.
If several sensors were connected, their values can be
checked in order by pressing the and  keys.
Conductivity Menu
Once the probe and interface are connected, the “Con-
ductivity” menu will appear in the “Main Menu”,
where all of its settings can be programmed.
All sensor menus have the same structure in order to
make them more intuitive and simple.
Change Name
This option modies the name given to the sensor
(Fig. 4).
To use this option, proceed as follows:

within the word using the  keys. When nished,
press “Enter”.
