Manual Temperature Setting:
The is the temperature that will be used
for temperature compensation when no temperature sensors are attached to
the instrument.
•
Stirrer Speed Setting:
This screen is only present on the Benchtop meters.
It is used to set the stirrer speed. The speeds are 1 through 7 with speed 1
being the slowest qand speed 7 being the fastest. We generally recommend a
speed of 3 or 4 for most applications. When a stirrer speed is selected:
• In continuous or timed reading mode the stirrer is toggled on and off with the
stirrer button.
• In AUTO-READ mode pressing the MEASURE key will start the stirrer and the
stirrer automatically turn off once the measurement is stable.
• When the AUTO-STIR BOD probe and AUTO-READ mode is selected, pressing
the button on the AUTO-STIR BOD probe will act just like pressing the
MEASURE key. It will turn on the stirrer, then when the reading stabilizes it will
automatically turn off the stirrer, freeze the display and print & log the results.
