3. Do one of the following:
s
vented cable, select “Use vented cable.” Go to step 5.
s
surements using non-vented cable, select “Use non-vented
cable or backshell.” Continue to step 4.
s
ments on non-vented cable, select “Use non-vented cable
or backshell” and also check the last box so a reading can be
taken from the barometric pressure sensor while it is available.
4. Supply a barometric pressure value for the software to use in the
absence of vented cable. Choose one of these options:
s
units by clicking the arrow on the list box). This value will be
used each time barometric pressure is required elsewhere in the
software—for example, when calibrating dissolved oxygen.
s
pressure based on the values in the table on this page. Please
note that this fixed value will not be recalculated if the elevation
changes.
