15. Initialising the WP-80 

If the calibration settings of the 

WP-80

 exceed the allowable limits, the 

unit may need to be initialised to factory default values. This action may 
be required if the electrode is replaced. 

To initialise the 

WP-80

1. Switch the 

WP-80

 off. 

2. Press and hold the 

 key while switching the 

WP-80

 back on. 

3. The following messages should be displayed: 

Initialized 

MUST ReCalibrate 

then : 

WP80s V3.5 S1234 
pH mV Temp. 

(The “s” after 

WP-80

 is shown when the RS232 serial port option is 

fitted) 

4. The meter then displays pH and Temperature. Note that the decimal 

points have been replaced with a 

, to indicate that the unit requires 

recalibration. 

Note: 

When the 

WP-80

 is initialised, the automatically recognised 

buffers are re-set to pH4.00, pH6.88 and pH9.23. See section 14 if 
you prefer to use pH7.00 instead of pH6.88 and pH10.00 instead 
of pH9.23.
