Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+
-6-
Insert the mini phono jack of temperature sensor into the socket on the meter. Unplug
the phono jack when not in use or you measure pH without any temperature
compensation.
2.7 Conditioning the pH Electrode
For best results condition the pH electrode before use or if it has not been in use for a
long time by soaking it into a container filled with pH 4 buffer solution for at least 1 hour
and rinse before use.
2.8 Switching the Meter On
1. Press ON/OFF key. All LCD segments will display momentarily as the meter
performs a self-diagnostic test. The Ion 6+ will display “- - -“ if the meter has not
been calibrated or if the meter has been reset.
2. Press MODE key to choose the desired measurement mode.
If a temperature probe is not connected, either 25.0 o C (factory default) or the last
calibrated temperature value is displayed. If a temperature probe is connected, the
current measured temperature is displayed.
3. “Or” (Over range) indicates the reading exceeds the maximum.
“Ur” (Under range) indicates the reading is under minimum measurement range
(see Section 7 Specifications).
