a.
With a polarographic DO sensor, 102.3% will be displayed when the reading stabilizes.
b.
With an RDO optical DO sensor, 100.0% will be displayed when the reading stabilizes.
6.
Press the f2 (cal done) key to save and end the calibration.
7.
The meter will display the calibration summary and export the data to the calibration log.
