Quick Start Guide 

For si792 D series 2-wire transmitters 

DOC016.53.00797

Additional copies are available on www.hach.com

DANGER: Explosion Hazard. This Quick Start Guide is intended for setup of the si792 
transmitter in a non-hazardous location. It is not a substitute for reading and following 
the instructions in the user manual. Installation in a hazardous location must be 
performed by qualified personnel per the applicable control drawing or ATEX certificate 
in the si792 D on the provided documentation CD.

DANGER: Electric Shock Hazard. Disconnect power to all wiring before making 
connection to the si792 D series transmitters.

1.

Connect the power and communication (

Table 1

).

2.

Connect the sensor wires (

Table 2

 and 

Table 3

).

3.

The transmitter is set by default for Oxysens and Oxyferm. Manually select the sensor type for the 

Oxygold G (

si792(x) D only

. Refer to the user manual for si792x D-FF and si792x D-PA.)

a.

Press 

CONF

ENTER

.

b

Input passcode: 

1200

. Press 

ENTER

. The display will show “out.1MNU”. Press 

ENTER

.

c

The display will show “tyPE A” and “o1 SnSR”. Use the 

ARROW

 keys to select “tyPE A” (Oxy-

ferm and Oxysens) or “tyPE B” (Oxygold). Press 

ENTER

.

d

Press 

CONF

ENTER

 to exit the configuration mode. The transmitter will remain in hold mode 

for 20 seconds, then return to measurement mode.

4.

Calibrate the sensor. The two most common calibration methods are described below. Refer to 

the user manual for other details.

Calibration in air (recommended)
a.

Press 

CAL

, enter passcode: 

1100, ENTER

. The display will briefly show CAL and then the 

entered (or default) humidity value. 

b

Remove the sensor from the process and place in air.

c

Enter the actual relative humidity and press 

ENTER

. The display will show the entered (or 

default) barometric pressure.

d

Enter the barometric pressure and press 

ENTER

. A drift check will begin. The drift check may 

take some time. When complete, the display will show the concentration in the units specified 
in the configuration menu. 

Note:

To exit the drift check after more than 10 seconds, press 

CAL

 (accuracy will be reduced).

e

Accept the calculated value for the concentration or adjust the value as necessary and then 
press 

ENTER

. The display will show the new slope and zero (relative to 25 °C and 

1.013 mbar).

f

Press 

ENTER

 to end the calibration. Return the sensor to the process. The measured value 

will be shown in the display alternately with Hold.

g

Press 

ENTER

 

to return to the measure mode.

Calibration by Comparison

The sensor can be calibrated for DO (or gas volume concentration) by entering the sample 
value from a measurement in an instrument such as a laboratory or portable meter. The sensor 
does not need to be removed from the process during calibration. The sample temperature 
should correspond to the measured process temperature for accurate results.

a.

Press 

CAL

, enter passcode: 

1105

ENTER

. The display will briefly show CAL PRD and then 

StorE. 

b

Collect a grab sample for measurement in the lab. Press 

ENTER

 to store the sample value in 

the transmitter. 

c

The cal mode indicator will flash to indicate that calibration is not complete. The transmitter 
will continue to measure and display the current sample values.

d

Measure the grab sample with a laboratory or portable meter.

e

Press 

CAL

, enter passcode: 

1105

ENTER

 to access the product calibration once more. The 

display will briefly show CAL PRD and then CALC.

f

Edit the displayed value to match the value measured by the laboratory or portable meter and 
press 

ENTER

. The new slope and zero point will be shown.

g

Press 

ENTER

 to end the calibration. Return the sensor to the process. The measured value 

will be shown in the display alternately with Hold.

h

Press 

ENTER 

to return to the measure mode.

Note:

For comparison calibration via Foundation Fieldbus, see the user manual.
