Millivolt (mV) Calibration

mV calibration is performed for ORP (Redox) measurements, where you can adjust
its mV values as a base value for measurements. Contact your OAKTON distributor
for ORP electrodes.

1. 

Press MODE/INC key to enter mV mode. LCD displays "mV".

2. 

Press the CAL key. LCD shows "CA", and the
reading flashes 

See figure

3. 

Use the MODE/INC key to adjust the reading
to your desired value. The maximum adjust-
ment you can make is ±25 mV. If the
MODE/INC key is pressed continuously, the
reading scrolls to the maximum allowable
value, and then loops back to the minimum
allowable value. 

4. 

Press ENTER key to confirm calibration. The 
LCD displays "CO" and the meter then
reverts to measurement mode.

5.  Measurement
