The factory default is Single-Point Calibration. See Section 6.11 to 
change this setting. 
4.3 General Calibration Tips
For best results, periodic calibration with known accurate standards is 
recommended. A maximum of one calibration point per range can be 
performed. If multiple calibration points are used in the same range, 
the most recent one will replace the previous one. 
When the electrode is replaced, it is best to clear the calibration to the 
factory default values (see Section 6.13). 
Rinse or immerse the probe before calibration and between samples 
with clean water (deionized water is ideal). 
The CON 700 has non-volatile memory which will retain all calibration 
values, as well as meter settings and memory values upon meter shut 
down or unexpected power loss. 
To protect from erroneous calibrations, the allowable tolerance is ±40% 
of the factory default value. 
Low conductivity standard solutions (less than 20 µS) are unstable and 
are very temperature dependent. As a result, reproducible calibration 
results are challenging in lowest measurement range #1 (0.00 to 20.0 
µS). 
4.4 Automatic Conductivity Calibration Procedure
1) Press as needed to select conductivity (
μS or mS).
2) Dip the electrode into the conductivity standard and press
.
Provide stirring for best results.
3) The primary display will show the factory default value, while the
secondary display will lock on the appropriate automatic standard 
value from TABLE 1. 
4) When
the
READY indicator appears, press
to accept. The
primary reading will flash briefly before returning to measurement 
mode upon successful calibration.
