Auto Buffer

 

This is a multiple  variable function that allows the user to choose  which 
pH  buffer  sets  that  will  be  utilized  in  the  2-point  calibration  mode.    The 
Q46P  contains  3  sets  of  built-in  buffer  tables  with  compensation  values 
ranging  from  0  to  95°C.    During  2-point  calibration,  the  instrument  will 
automatically identify which buffer is being used and compensate for the 
value  based  on  the  built-in  tables.    This  allows  very  quick,  highly 
accurate  calibrations  by  the  user.    The  order  in  which  the  buffers  are 
used  during  calibration  is  unimportant,  since  the  system  automatically 
chooses the correct buffer. 

 

The  default  setting  for  this  feature  is 

OFF

,  which  disables  the  auto-

recognition  function.    Press  ENTER  to  change  this  setting.    The  buffer 
table  set  options  are:    1:  [4/7/10],  2:  [4/7/9.18],  and  3:  [4.65/6.79/9.23]. 
See  Figure  32  for  buffer  tables.    Once  the  buffer  set  is  selected,  press 
ENTER and the message 

Accepted!

 will be displayed on the lower line.
