Displaying the gram equivalent (amount of solute)
The unit is equipped with a function that automatically calculates the salt content from the salinity
concentration in the solution. Automatic calculation uses the predetermined solvent amount.
Since the
amount of solvent is retained even after the unit is turned off, it is useful to enter the usual amount into
the unit.
To use this function, first press the Select key to move the cursor (triangle arrow) to the [g (gram)]
position.
To change the solvent amount, press the Change/OK key to display the set amount.
The default (factory value) is set to 0.2 liter (200 cc). Press the [+] key (shared with the Average
key) to increase the amount and press the [
−] key (shared with the Select key) to decrease the
amount. The amount range to be set is 0.1 to 100 liters.
Upon setting the amount, press the Change/OK key to confirm the setting.
Insert the sensor into the sample to be measured, and then press the Measure key. The unit to be
displayed is [g]
The averaging function cannot be used for the gram equivalent.
Measuring in intervals
The unit is equipped with an interval function. This function allows the user to start measuring at
predetermined time intervals, without pressing the Measure key each time.
The time interval to be set is between 1 to 60 seconds in 1-second steps and 60 minutes in 1-minute
steps.
To set the interval, press the Change/OK key while in the concentration measurement mode.
When the unit enters the interval setting mode,
the value [0] should be displayed as the
default.
Press the [+] key to increase the time and press the [
−] key to decrease the time.
Press the Change/OK key again to start the interval measurement,.
Since the unit cannot be turned off automatically while interval measurement is under way, an
alarm is sounded to warn the user. A 1-second alarm sounds continuously regardless of the
interval time set.
To turn off the unit while in the interval mode, press the Measure key (on the main unit or sensor
probe). When the unit is turned on again, the interval measurement setting is enabled so that a
new interval measurement can be started immediately.
To cancel the interval measurement, use the Change/OK key to set the interval time to [0]
The averaging function cannot be used while in the interval measurement mode.
