Contaminated Buer
“CONTAMINATED BUFFER” appears in order to alert
that the buer could be contaminated. Refresh your
buer and continue the calibration procedure.
Broken Temperature Sensor
If the temperature sensor should malfunction or break at any time, a temperature
of “25.0 ºC” will blink on the second LCD line and the
message “BROKEN TEMPERATURE SENSOR” will
appear on the third LCD line after leaving calibration.
The calibration will have the compensation at 25 ºC.
Replace probe if this occurs.
Note: If this occurs during logging “25 ºC !” will appear in the CSV le.
Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) refers to a quality control function used to
ensure uniformity of sensor calibrations and measurements. The dedicated
GLP key opens a le of the latest calibration information. Use the qp keys to
scroll the stored information. This includes the buers used, temperature of the
buer, time and date of the last calibration, the sensor serial number and the
calculated oset and percent slope. This information is available in Basic and
Standard Modes. This information is also included with every data log. Newest
calibration points report as a solid number, older calibration data (that is still
used) will be displayed blinking.
If calibration has not been performed, the instrument
displays a blinking “NO CAL” message.
The pH calibration oset and slope (the GLP slope is
the average of the calibration slopes; the percentage
is referenced to the ideal slope value at 25 ºC). The
condition and response indicators displayed are from
the last calibration.
Pressing the qp keys, the last calibration date (yyyy.
mm.dd) together with the current reading is displayed.
