Section 8 User setup
1. Select the PROGRAMMING option from the main menu.
8.1 MEASURE option
8.1.1 ELECTRODE
The ELECTRODE option is used to configure the type of electrode being used.
1. TYPE: Define the type of electrode from either Glass, Sb, Redox or Other.
2. ISO Pt: The isothermal point corresponds to the pH value which does not vary according to the
temperature. Enter the pH value.
3. SLOPE: This indicates the electrode sensitivity as a %age of the theoretic value (59.16 mV/pH at
25°C). Enter the %age value.
4. Uiso: This is the potential of the isothermal point. Enter the mV value.
8.1.2 TEMP. COMP.
TEMP. COMP. is used to define the temperature compensation.
1. MEAS.: If the temperature is being measured with a temperature sensor, select the type of
sensor Pt100 or Pt1000, otherwise select No.
2. TYPE: Choose between No temperature compensation, an Automatic (only available if Pt100 or
Pt1000 was selected above) or Manual temperature compensation mode.
Note: If No was selected for both MEAS. and TYPE, then the following parameters are not available.
3. TEMP.: Enter the sample temperature for a manual temperature compensation. This is not
available if automatic compensation was selected.
4. COMP.: Enter the type of temperature compensation:
• Nernst - linear compensation (0.1984 mV/°C)
• Pure - compensation according to the ultrapure water curve
• Table 1 - compensation according to the sulphate curve (4.84 mg/L corresponds to a pH 4.0 at
25°C)
• Table 2 - compensation according to the ammoniac/hydrazine curve (0.272 mg/L ammoniac
+ 20 μg/L corresponds to a pH 9.0 at 25°C)
• Table 3 - compensation according to the ammoniac/morpholine/hydrazine curve (1.832 mg/L
ammoniac + 10 mg/L morpholine + 50 μg/L hydrazine corresponds to a pH 9.6 at 25°C)
• Table 4 - compensation according to the phosphate curve (3 mg/L phosphates + 0.3 mg/L
ammoniac)
• Coeff. - adjustable coefficient (pH/10°C). If this option is selected, enter value of the coefficient
in pH/10° (ph/18°F)
8.2 ALARMS option
This menu is used to configure each of the four alarms.
8.2.1 ALARMS 1/2 - (Mode = Limit)
1. AFFECT: Choose if the limit is allocated to a measurement (pH/mV) or temperature (°C/°F).
2. LIMIT: Enter the value that will trigger the alarm.
3. DIR: Enter the direction (Up or Down).
4. DELAY: Time delay (in seconds) before the alarm, after reaching the defined limit, is triggered.
5. HYST: Defines the hysteresis percentage.
6. RELAY: Choose if the relay is normally opened (NO) or normally closed (NC).
