PP Systems Environmental Sensor Conversions:
The following conversions need to be made to determine actual measurements of PAR, %RH
and temperature when using PP Systems’ environmental sensors.
PAR Sensor mV x 3 = PAR Level (µmol m
-2
s
-1
)
%RH Sensor mV / 10 = %RH
Temperature mV / 20 = Temperature (˚C)
To return to the Main Menu while in Measurement Mode, simply press the N key.
Steady State Porometer (Probe Type 7)
Immediately after pressing key 1, the instrument will display the following message to allow
the sensors to time for alignment (Display 1):
After approximately 3 seconds, the following is displayed to allow entry of record and plot
number if required (Display 2):

Note. If the plot number needs to be changed, press key N when Display 2 above is shown
and enter the plot number desired. Next, press the Y key to continue. To return to Display 1
press key 8/X twice. Only the plot number can be changed at this point and the record
number automatically resets to 1 when the plot number changes.
To proceed to the Measurement Display, press the 8/X key (Display 3):
