Socket
The
7
‐
way
socket
on
the
side
of
the
meter
serves
three
functions:
•
Data
download
socket,
for
transferring
data
to
PC,
using
cable
supplied.
•
Allows
the

Sensor
The
sensor
has
two
outer
carbon
electrodes
for
measuring
freshness,
and
two
inner
metal
electrodes
for
sensing
contact
with
the
skin
of
the
fish.
It
is
a
good
idea
to
wipe
the
sensor
clean
between
readings,
since
it
is
easy
for
fish
scales
to
stick
to
the
sensor
and
affect
readings.
