Measuring the ion concentration
AutoRead
(drift control)
The AutoRead function (drift control) continually checks the stability of
the measurement signal. The stability has a considerable impact on the
reproducibility of measured values. The display of the measured pa-
rameter flashes until a stable measured value is available.
Criteria
The AutoRead criteria affect the reproducibility of the measured values.
The following criteria can be adjusted:
!
high
: highest reproducibility
!
medium
: medium reproducibility
!
low
: lowest reproducibility
Note
Increasing reproducibility also causes the response time to increase
until a measured value is evaluated as stable.
Temperature while
calibrating and
measuring
For precise ISE measurements the temperature difference between
measurement and calibration should not be greater that 2 K. Therefore,
adjust the temperature of the standard and measuring solutions ac-
cordingly. If the temperature difference is greater the
[TempErr]
warn-
ing appears in the measured value display.

Settings for ISE measurements
The settings are made in the measuring menu of the ISE measure-
ment. To open the settings, activate the relevant measuring window in
the measured value display and press the
g
key shortly. After com-
pleting the settings, switch to the measured value display with
m
.
The following settings are possible for ISE measurements:
1
Perform the preparatory activities according to section 4.5.1.
2
Immerse the electrode in the test sample.
