CAUTION
Do not disconnect either sonde or flow meter power during a
communications check. The memory in the sonde can be dam-
aged by a power failure during an update.
If the communication check is bad, the following display will
appear:
Note
The flow meter cannot communicate at 600 baud. If your
sonde has been set up for 600 baud, you will get a communi-
cations failure. Consult the YSI 600 Manual for what to do in
this case.
If the communications check is good, the following display will
appear:
After you press Enter , the flow meter will advance to the fol-
lowing display:
• Selection of NOT MEASURED from any of the YSI
menus will prevent you from activating that function
later in the program.
If you wish to make use of the YSI 600 sonde’s pH measurement
capability, select pH. If you do not, select NOT MEASURED.
If you wish to make use of the YSI 600 sonde’s D.O. measurement
capability, select MG/L. Otherwise, select NOT MEASURED.
For any of the YSI CONDUCTIVITY options, if you press Enter ,
the following display will appear:.
This value is provided because conductivity rises (~2%/ °C) with
temperature. The default setting is 1.91%. This value is the tem-
perature coefficient for pure KCl (potassium chloride) in water.
For other salts this value will be somewhat inaccurate, but it
does provide a close approximation for solutions of many common
salts, such as NaCl (sodium chloride), NH
