A detailed flow diagram is provided at the end of Sec. 7 to guide you through the calibration routines.
Oxygen sensors generate a current directly proportional
to the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the sample.
Calibrating the sensor requires exposing it to a solution
containing no oxygen (zero standard) and to a solution
containing a known amount of oxygen (full-scale standard).
Automatic air calibration is standard. The user simply
exposes the sensor to water-saturated air.
To calibrate oxygen:
1. Press the MENU button
2. Select Calibrate. Press ENTER.
3. Select Sensor 1 or Sensor 2 corresponding to
oxygen. Press ENTER.
4. Select Oxygen. Press ENTER.
The adjacent screen will appear. To calibrate Oxygen
or Temperature, scroll to the desired item and press
ENTER

The following sub-sections provide you with the initial
display screen that appears for each calibration routine.
Use the flow diagram for Oxygen calibration at the
end of Sec. 7 and the live screen prompts for each routine
to complete calibration.

Air calibration criteria can be changed. The following
criteria can be adjusted:
Stabilization time (default 10 sec.)
Stabilization pH value (default 0.05 ppm)
Salinity of the solution to be measured (default
00.0 parts per thousand)
The adjacent screen will appear to allow adjustment of
these criteria”
