Description and Recommended Action

Probe Temp over range

Temperature is over

 

50°C or reading 

erroneously.  Check cable connection 

and ensure temperature sensor is clean.  

Probe Temp under range

Temperature is under

 

-5°C or reading 

erroneously.  Check cable connection 

and ensure temperature sensor is clean.  

DO over range

DO% saturation is over 550%.  Check sensor 

cap and recalibrate.

DO under range

DO% saturation is under -5%.  Check sensor 

cap and recalibrate.

Barometer over range

Barometric  pressure  is  reading  over  988 

mmHg.  Calibrate barometer.

Barometer under range

Barometric  pressure  is  reading  under  375 

mmHg.  Calibrate barometer. 

ODO Communications 

Error

No communication between the instrument 

and cable.  Check cable connection.

Clock Battery Low

Internal battery for real time clock has low 

voltage.  Contact Technical Support.
