GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI9819X is a portable logging multiparameter system (instrument, probe) that monitors up to 14
different water quality parameters (7 measured, 7 calculated).
The microprocessor‑based intelligent multisensor probes allows measurement of many water quality
parameters such as pH, ORP, dissolved oxygen, conductivity and temperature with data logging. The
system is easy to setup and easy to use.
The HI9819X features a graphic, backlit display that automatically sizes the digits to fit the screen
with on‑screen graphing capability. Each parameter is fully configurable.
HI9819X was designed to withstand harsh environments and is the ideal solution for field measure‑
ments of lakes, rivers and sea.
The meter meets IP67 standards (30 minute immersion at a depth of 1 m) and the multisensor probe
meets IP68 standards (continuous immersion in water).
Main features of the HI9819X systems:
• Rugged meter and probe
• Easy to use
• Measure up to 14 parameters and display of up to 12 parameters
• Waterproof protection (IP67 for the meter and IP68 for the probe)
• Graphic LCD with backlight
• Built‑in barometer for D.O. concentration compensation (HI98194, HI98196 only)
• Quick calibration feature
• Measurement check to eliminate any erroneous readings
• Auto recognition of probe and sensors
• Log‑on‑demand and automatic logging (up to 45,000 samples) on meter for all parameters
• Graphical display of logged data
• USB interface for PC communication
• Auto‑ranging for EC readings (HI98194, HI98195 only)
• Good Laboratory Practice feature, the last 5 calibrations are automatically stored
• Field‑replaceable sensors with color coded caps
• Meter is powered with alkaline batteries

Chapter 2 - QUICK START
• Sensor O‑Rings must be lubricated with the supplied grease prior to installation.
• HI769819X probes have 2 or 3 sensor connectors sockets identified with color‑coded triangles:
• Connector 1 (red): For either pH/ORP, pH sensor
• Connector 2 (white): For dissolved oxygen sensor (HI98194, HI98196 only)
• Connector 3 (blue): For EC sensor (HI98194, HI98195 only)
• Position the connector key towards the center of the probe, make sure the connector is seated
correctly (the sensor will no longer move freely) before tightening the locking threads.
• To protect the sensors, screw the protective shield onto the probe body.
• With the meter off, connect the probe to the instrument input on the top of the meter. Align the
pins and key then push the plug into the socket and tighten the thread.
• Turn the meter on by pressing the On/Off key. The meter will automatically recognize the probe
and the installed sensors and identify them on the probe status screen.
• Press Measure to view the measurement screen.

BASIC OPERATION
The main operating modes for HI9819X are measurement, logging and setup.
The measurement screen can be configured to display a single measurement or up to 12 simultane‑
ous measurements by using the numbers 1‑7 on the keypad. Use the / keys to scroll through
the measurements not being displayed. See page 24 for more details.
The measurement units will blink if the system has not been calibrated and the measurement number
will blink when the reading is out of range.
Press Log to display the logging menu. You can either log a single sample on the meter or start an
interval log on the meter. See Chapter 10 for more details.
Press Menu to enter setup mode. You can configure which parameters you want to measure, calibrate
the sensors, change system settings and view the meter and probe status.
HELP FUNCTION
HI9819X features context sensitive HELP, which provides useful information regarding the displayed
screen.
Simply press the HELP key to access this function, then use the / keys to scroll through the
message.
To escape from the HELP window, press the HELP key again or ESC.
