This prompt appears for 1 second each time the instrument is
turned on.
The parameter code, “734f” for free chlorine or “734t” for total
chlorine, indicates that the meter is in a ready state and zeroing
can be performed.
Sampling in Progress. This flashing prompt appears each time the
meter is performing a measurement.
This indicates that the meter is in a zeroed state and measurement
can be performed.
Light over range: the cuvet is not inserted correctly and an excess
ambient light is reaching the detector. If the cover is properly
installed, then contact your dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer

• Only in the case of total chlorine measurement,
add 3 drops of HI 93734C-0 reagent to the
cuvet.
• For both free and total chlorine, add the content
of one packet of HI 93701-0 Free Chlorine
reagent. Replace the cap and shake gently for
20 seconds (or 2 minutes in case of seawater
analysis).
• Replace the cuvet into the holder and ensure
that the notch on the cap is positioned securely
into the groove.
• Hold READ/TIMER for three seconds. The display
will show the countdown prior to measurement.
Alternatively, wait for:
Free Chlorine:
Total Chlorine:
