To toggle between information displayed on the third LCD line, use the
keys.
Readings can be temperature compensated.
y
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC), default:
The probe has a built-in
temperature sensor; the temperature value is used to automatically compensate the
EC / TDS reading.
When in ATC mode, ATC tag is displayed and measurements are compensated using
the temperature coefficient. Recommended default value for water samples is 1.90% /
°C. Temperature compensation is referenced to the selected reference temperature.
Use the
keys to view the current temperature coefficient. The value is displayed
along with the Cell Factor (C.F.) on the third LCD line.
To change the temperature coefficient, see SETUP section for details.
A temperature coefficient must also be set for the sample.
Note:
If the reading outside of range when the range is set to automatic, the full‑scale
value (200.0 mS/cm for MTC/ATC or 500.0 mS/cm for No TC) is displayed blinking.
y
Manual (MTC):
The temperature value, shown on the second LCD line, can be manually
set using the
keys. When in MTC mode, the °C tag is displayed blinking.
y
No Temperature Compensation (NO TC):
The temperature value is displayed, but
not taken into account. When this option is selected, the NO TC tag is displayed. The
reading displayed on the first LCD line is the uncompensated EC or TDS value.
Note:
Temperature‑compensation and absolute conductivity (NO TC) are configured
in Setup.
