III. RULES of OPERATION
A. Operation
Using the instrument is simple:
• Individual or multiple parameter readings may be obtained by
filling individual sensors or entire cell cup area.
• Rinse the conductivity cell or pH/ORP sensor well with test
solution 3 times and refill. Temperature and/or measurement
extremes will require additional rinses for maximum accuracy.
• Press the desired measurement key to start measurement.
Pressing the key again does no harm and restarts the 15
second auto “off” timer.
• Note the value displayed or press the MS key to store the
reading (ref. Memory Storage, pg. 23). It’s that simple!
B. Characteristics of the Keys
• Though your P
ool
P
ro
has a variety of sophisticated options,
it is designed to provide quick, easy, accurate measurements
by simply pressing one key.
• All functions are performed one key at a time.
• There is no “off” key. After 15 seconds of inactivity the
instrument turns itself off (60 seconds in CAL mode). User
adjustable up to 75 seconds.
• Rarely is it necessary to press and hold a key (as in Procedure
to Select a Solution, pg. 15; or Cond. MIN/SALT or TDS
Calibration, pg.17).
C. Operation of the Keys (See Instrument Illustration on pg. i)
1. Measurement Keys in General
Any of the measurement keys in the upper part of the keypad turns on
the instrument in the mode selected. The mode is shown at the bottom
of the display, and the measurement units appear at the right. Pressing
a measurement key does this even if you are in a calibration sequence
and also serves to cancel a change (ref. Leaving Calibration, pg. 17).
2. COND, MIN/SALT and TDS Keys
These 3 keys are used with solution in the Conductivity Cell.
Precautions:
• While filling cell cup ensure no air bubbles cling on the cell wall.
• If the proper solution is not selected (KCl, NaCl, 442),
refer to Why Solution Selection is Available, pg. 14 and
Procedure to Select a Solution, pg. 15.
a. COND Key
Solution to be tested is introduced into the conductivity cell and a press
of displays conductivity with units on the right. On the left is
shown the solution type selected for conductivity.
