This configuration setting only applies to GLI Differen-
tial pH sensors that contain a special “standard cell”
buffer.
GLI Differential pH sensors normally contain 7.00
pH “standard cell” buffer, providing a theoretical output of
zero mV at exactly 7.00 pH. This relationship is called the
“isopotential.” A sensor with the normal 7.00 pH isopotential
provides (-) 59.9 mV per pH at process values higher than
7.00 pH and (+) 59.9 mV per pH at process values lower
than 7.00 pH. Special applications may require the sensor
to have a special isopotential such as 6.50 pH. For best ac-
curacy, set the analyzer to match the isopotential value of
the special GLI Differential pH sensor.
NOTE:
Changing the isopotential setting always requires
you to re-calibrate the analyzer. When using a con-
ventional combination electrode, the isopotential
value is irrelevant and does not apply.

A time constant (in seconds) can be set to filter or “smooth
out” the sensor signal. A minimum value of “0 seconds” has
no smoothing effect. A maximum value of “60 seconds” pro-
vides maximum smoothing. Deciding what sensor signal
filter time to use is a compromise. The higher the filter time,
the longer the sensor signal response time will be to a
change in the actual process value.
