Within the Auto Stable menu, you can also

choose to Hold All Readings for as many

parameters as you set for Auto Stable. For

instance, if oRP and pH have Auto Stable

enabled and Hold All Readings is enabled,

then the display will hold the readings once

oRP and pH have both reached their Auto

Stable settings. You must press the Esc key

to “release” the held display in order to take

subsequent readings. Hold All Readings must

be reactivated after each use!

CALIBRAtIoN - oRP

Press Cal

. Highlight Probe ID or User ID

if you wish to add, select, edit, or delete an ID.

Probe ID must be enabled in the System GLP

menu to appear in the Calibrate menu. User

ID will appear automatically. Select ‘None’

if you do not want a User ID stored with the

calibration. When enabled, these IDs are stored

with each calibration record in the GLP file.

After selecting your User ID and/or Probe

ID if appropriate, highlight ISE (ORP) and

press enter. the message line will show the

instrument is “Ready for point”.

Place the sensor in a solution of known oRP

and wait for the readings to stabilize.

Highlight Calibration value and press enter to

input the value of the oRP calibration standard.

If using the YSI Zobell calibration solution,

the Pro Plus will automatically determine the

calibration value. However, the calibration value

should be verified against the chart on the side

of the Zobell bottle. Next, once the temperature

and oRP readings stabilize, highlight Accept

Calibration and press enter to calibrate. or,

press Esc

to cancel the calibration. If User

Field 1 or 2 are enabled, you will be prompted
to select the fields and then press Cal

to

complete the calibration.

Ammonium, Nitrate, and Chloride sensors can be used on 60510-X, 6051020-X,

6051030-X, 6051010-X, and Quatro cables. these cables also accommodate pH

and oRP sensors so instrument setup is important.

WARNING: Ammonium, Nitrate, and Chloride sensors

should only be used at DEPTHS OF LESS THAN 55 FEET

(17 METERS). Use of the sensors at greater depths is

likely to permanently damage the sensor membrane.

WARNING: Ammonium, Nitrate, and Chloride

sensors should only be used in FRESHWATER.

SEtUP - AMMoNIUM, NItRAtE, CHLoRIDE

Install the Ammonium, Nitrate, or Chloride sensor in Port 2 if using in

conjunction with pH or oRP sensor on a 6051010 or Quatro cable. See the

Getting Started Setup section of this manual for a complete list of cable/sensor

configurations.

Press Sensor

, highlight Setup, press enter. Highlight ISE1 if using an

ammonium, nitrate, or chloride sensor on a 60510, 6051020, or 6051030 cable.

If using a 6051010 or Quatro cable highlight ISE1 if the sensor is installed in

Port 1 or highlight ISE2 if the sensor is installed in Port 2. Press enter.
