path. This ensures that no water remains in the sys-
tem.
Dry the sensors using one of two methods: using
user-supplied airstream or using the LI-600 pump. If
drying the sensors by delivering an airstream across
the sensors using either a tank of dry gas (recom-
mended) or an alternate airstream method, see Using
a user-supplied airstream on page8-13. If delivering air-
flow across the sensors via the LI-600 pump only, see
Using the LI-600 pump on page8-10. If the resulting
RH is <1% and trending down after several minutes,
the zero does not require resetting.
2 Open Instrument Calibration.
Connect the LI-600 to a computer via USB then open
the computer software. Click the drop-down menu
on the Toolbar then select Instrument Calibration.
3 Power off the pump and power on the blower.
Select RH Zero then click Begin RHZero Cal-
ibration to view the RH Ref and RH Sample. Click
TURNPUMP OFF then click
TURNBLOWERON.
4 Zero the RH sensors.
When the RH stabilizes, click Zero for RHRef then
again on the confirmation prompt to reset the zero.
Click Apply on the second confirmation prompt to
finish. Repeat for RH Sample.
RHsensor span
A known H

O input is required to span the RH sensors
using another H

O analyzer or a dew point generator.
Take the following steps to span the RHsensors.
