INITIAL PREPARATION
Plug the 12 VDC adapter to the power supply socket. To prepare the instrument for use,
connect the pH electrode to the BNC connector and the temperature probe to the
appropriate socket on the rear panel of the instrument. The temperature probe is used in
conjunction with the pH electrode to utilize the instrument's ATC capability, but it can
also be used independently to take temperature measurements.
For electrodes with a separate reference, connect the electrode’s BNC to the BNC
connector and the reference electrode plug to the reference socket.
For temperature measurements and automatic temperature compensation connect the
temperature probe to the appropriate socket. After measurement switch the meter off,
clean the electrode and store it with a few drops of MA9015

protection cap. The auto-off feature turns the meter off after 20 minutes of non-use. To
disable this feature, see SETUP menu on page 26.
The instrument enters the same range and mode as it was at power off, while the “OPEN”
tag and the “ ” and “ ” symbols from the electrode blink on the LCD for a few seconds to
remind the user to unscrew the electrode refilling cap, and to remove the protective cap
before taking measurements.

Make sure the instrument has been calibrated before taking pH measurements.
• Submerge the tip of the electrode (4cm/1½") and the temperature probe into the
sample to be tested and stir gently. Allow for the electrode to stabilize.
• If necessary, press the RANGE key until the display changes to pH mode.
• The pH measurement is displayed on the primary LCD and the temperature on the secondary
LCD.
• If the reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will blink on the primary LCD.
