The procedure for calibrating the meter is given in
the accompanying meter instruction manual.
Taking and Data Logging Measurements
Note: Spectrum Technologies installs a GPS -
compatible data logger that is distinct from the data
logger built into the meter. The latter uses the SAVE
button to store values. These values are also re-
tained within the meter but cannot be downloaded
with FieldScout software. The GPS - compatible log-
ger is operated as follows:
When the probe is inserted in soil or water, the me-
ter ’ s LCD will immediately begin indicating the EC.
When this value stabilizes, the meter
locks on to that value and the LCD
will display READY in the lower left
portion of the screen. To capture this
value with the data logger, press the
ENTER/HOLD button followed by the
PRINT button. The PRINT button is
the illuminated button at the very bot-
tom of the keypad.
The PRINT button also indicates whether the data
logger is receiving the GPS signal. See GPS Con-
nection (p. 10) for more details.
