Charging the Sensor

Connect the Go Direct Ammonium Ion-Selective Electrode to the included
Micro USB Cable and any USB device for two hours. Connecting the Go Direct
Ammonium Electrode BNC to the amplifier during charging is optional.

You can also charge up to eight Go Direct Ammonium Ion-Selective Electrodes
using our Go Direct Charge Station, sold separately (order code: GDX-CRG).
An LED on each Go Direct Ammonium Ion-Selective Electrode indicates
charging status.
