25.0˚

C

ATC

Displays the current temperature based on the temperature probe reading or entered temperature value. 
Shows the origin of the temperature as MAN (entered temperature) or ATC (temperature probe). 

HOLD

Shown when 

 is pressed and the displayed measurement is frozen. 

Indicates a calibration was successfully completed.

Indicates the pH electrode condition as good (two bars), fair (one bar) or bad (slash through it), 
based on the last saved calibration and measurement stability. 

M

100

Indicates a method is in use and the number of the method being used.

pH

Indicates the type of measurement and determines the type of calibration that will be performed.

ready

Specifies the stability of the electrode as
