| calibration |
Select points matching your sample range; use fresh standards; up to 5 points for high accuracy. |
Automatic recognition of 146.5 µS, 1408 µS, 12.85 mS; custom buffers also supported. |
| temperature compensation |
Use ATC for convenience; for non‑linear samples, select appropriate compensation type (linear/pure water). |
Reference temperature selectable (5–25°C). |
| electrode care |
Rinse with deionized water between samples; store electrode properly; inspect for contamination. |
Regular cleaning maintains accuracy and prolongs cell life. |
| data management |
Export data via USB flash drive or RS‑232 for GLP‑compliant reporting. |
1000 groups per parameter with date/time stamp and log management. |
