3.2 Temperature Calibration
The built-in temperature sensor of conductivity and DO probe included with the
meter are factory calibrated. The built-in ATC probe of the conductivity cells
can be used for temperature readout and compensation of the pH values. DO
in mg/L is dependent on temperature, so it is first necessary to calibrate or verify
the temperature reading. Calibrate the probes only if you suspect temperature
errors may have occurred over a long period of time or if you have a replacement
probe. This procedure offers offset adjustment of probe to ensure more accurate
temperature measurement.
Use a thermometer which is known to be accurate to measure the temperature of
your sample.
3.2.1 Temperature Calibration for ATC mode
Make sure you have selected ‘ATC’ and required unit of measurement (ºC or ºF) in
Temperature settings. Refer ‘Temperature Setup’ section in page 98 for more
details.
1. Switch on the meter. Make sure the meter is in measurement mode.
2. Press CAL (F2) to go to calibration mode.
3. The meter shows ‘Calibration-Rinse Electrode’ screen [Figure 48-(a)] for
few seconds and then shows the cell constant adjustment screen.
4. Press NEXT (F3) key.
5. Press TEMP (F1) to go to temperature calibration. The temperature
calibration screen appears (Figure 40).

Note: If the meter is password protected, you will be prompted to enter a
password. Refer ‘Accessing Calibration mode when password protection
enabled’ in pa
