Connecting the Temperature Probe

 

2.1  Place the temperature probe into the circular hole located at the 
 

center of the electrode arm. 

 

 

 

 

 

 
2.2  Insert the jack plug to the connector socket labeled ATC. Ensure 
 

the connector is fully seated. 

 

 

 

Connecting the Power Adapter 

3.1  Insert the connector of power adapter to the power socket. 
3.2  Plug the 9V DC power adapter into the wall outlet. 
 

 

 

 

 

Prior to Use 

Soak the conductivity electrode for about 10 minutes in tap water to 
remove dirt and oil stains on the sensor surface.
