LabStation (optional)

The LabStation, which is available as an accessory, enables you to use the
pHotoFlex

Turb conveniently in the laboratory (see LabStation operating

manual).
Laboratory operation with the LabStation enables the following additional
functions:



With photometric measurements, the zero measurement is retained even
after switching the pHotoFlex

Turb off and on again



You can connect a barcode reader for the simplified calling up of programs



The LSdata software included serves to easily enter user-defined pro-
grams



Operation with power pack and battery pack (included in the scope of de-
livery of the LabStation). The accumulator pack in the pHotoFlex

Turb is

automatically charged as soon as the meter is placed in the LabStation.
